* method is asked to load the UserInterface object for the given username
* (via loadUserByUsername) so that the rest of the process can continue.
*
* Internally, a user provider can load users from any source (databases,
* configuration, web service). This is totally independent of how the authentication
* information is submitted or what the UserInterface object looks like.
