Description
http://stackoverflow.com/q/19500332/206466 seems obvious to want to be able to do this, esp since you can protect it with CORS, unless there's a reason it's a bad idea.

Research direction
The issue only links to a Stack Overflow question and does not name a Spring Security file, entry point, or test. Start by reviewing the linked question and the existing authentication documentation to clarify the intended REST authentication flow and its security constraints. A concrete API design and acceptance criteria are needed before implementation can be considered done.
