* password (for checking against a submitted password), assigning roles
* and so on.
*
* Regardless of how your user are loaded or where they come from (a database,
* configuration, web service, etc), you will have a class that implements
* this interface. Objects that implement this interface are created and
* loaded by different objects that implement UserProviderInterface
