69 * - ACTION_LOGIN: Valid for passing to beginAuthentication. Called on all
70 * providers.
71 * - ACTION_CREATE: Valid for passing to beginAccountCreation. Called on
72 * all providers.
73 * - ACTION_LINK: Valid for passing to beginAccountLink. Called on linking
74 * primary providers only.
75 * - ACTION_CHANGE: Valid for passing to AuthManager::changeAuthenticationData
76 * to change credentials. Called on primary and secondary providers.
77 * - ACTION_REMOVE: Valid for passing to AuthManager::changeAuthenticationData
78 * to remove credentials. Must work without additional user input (i.e.
79 * without calling loadFromSubmission). Called on primary and secondary
80 * providers.
82 * @see AuthManager::getAuthenticationRequests()
83 * @param string $action
84 * @param array $options Options are:
85 * - username: User name related to the action, or null/unset if anon.
86 * - ACTION_LOGIN: The currently logged-in user, if any.
87 * - ACTION_CREATE: The account creator, if non-anonymous.
88 * - ACTION_LINK: The local user being linked to.
89 * - ACTION_CHANGE: The user having data changed.
90 * - ACTION_REMOVE: The user having data removed.
91 * If you leave the username property of the returned requests empty, this
92 * will automatically be copied there (except for ACTION_CREATE where it
93 * wouldn't really make sense).
