While its absolutely awesome that we're collecting so many examples, I do
fear that pretty soon we won't be able to see the forest for the trees.

Terminology is pretty much a key issue here. We could end up with many
examples that demonstrate effectively the same thing, but because one
example uses the term "Authenticator" and another the term "Repository"
it's hard to see what the actual differences are that count between both
examples.

Even more troublesome is when one example uses the term "Authenticator" for
which an other example uses "Authentication Mechanism", and then yet
another example also uses the term "Authenticator" but for which yet
another example uses the term "Authentication Repository", and where the
two usages of "Authenticator" are rather different.

Just something to think about ;)

Kind regards,
Arjan Tijms
