/**
 * <p>An <tt>AuthorizingAccount</tt> is an {@link Account Account} that knows about its assiged roles and permissions
 * and can perform its own authorization (access control) checks.  It primarily exists as a support class for Realm
 * implementations that want to cache authorization state when doing an account lookup so multiple authorization checks
 * do not need to access the Realm's underlying data store repeatedly.
 *
 * <p>Of course, an <tt>AuthorizingAccount</tt> concept is only a convenience mechansim if JSecurity account caching
 * is enabled.  Realm implementations are free to ignore this interface entirely and implement/override any of their
 * <tt>Realm</tt>'s {@link Authorizer Authorizer} methods to execute the authorization checks as they see fit.
 * ({@link org.jsecurity.realm.Realm Realm} is a sub-interface of {@link Authorizer Authorizer} and therefore must
 * implement those methods as well).
 *
 * <p>Note: This class is deprecated and will be removed prior to 1.0 being released.  Instead, either just
 * return an {@link Account} instance or if you want fine-grained control over authorization behavior, extend
 * a subclass of {@link org.jsecurity.realm.AuthorizingRealm} and implement your own security checks.</p>
