| Method | checkPassword | Validate these credentials against the correct password. | 
| Method | checkMD5Password | Validate these credentials against the correct MD5 digest of the password. | 
| Parameters | password | The correct, plaintext password against which to check.

the given password, False if they do not, or a Deferred which
will be called back with one of these values.
