I think that the docs are incorrect. The authenticate() option gets a function called user() which accepts a callback, and invokes that callback with the username, password, and maybe error properties. I've updated the docs to reflect this. But, I'm entirely new to the codebase, so I would recommend a thorough review of my changes to see if they really do make sense.
From my local tests, and as I read the code here:
