> The UsernameTokenProcessor will not authenticate anything but a UsernameToken that was hashed with a nonce and timestamp.  Anything else that is passed to it will create a valid principal regardless of what the implementations password callback handler does.  This is creating confusion and preventing WSS4J from being used for anything where the the UsernameToken is passed plainly.  It is understood that doing this in a production environment is discouraged, but it is usefull to have this implementation work as expected so that the framework can be experimented with and evaluated.
> Specifically, in UsernameTokenProcessor.java, for a UsernameToken that is not of hashed, nothing is done with the WSPasswordCallback object after the call to the password handler handle method is invoked.  Since nothing is done with it, the code drops through and sets up a valid principal with the userid and returns.  There is no way to signal a WSSecurityException(WSSecurityException.FAILED_AUTHENTICATION).
