Reply to the authorizationhost was crashed on Big Sur beta 3 and 4
I updated to Beta9 today, and FB8711128 “UI derived from SFAuthorizationViewPlugin isn’t displayed properly” is fixed; however, custom UI cannot cycle property between credential and identity views, so I filed FB8758186. The other feedback I filed, FB8710105 “Login window never advances past custom authorization plugin written in Objective-C”, still crashes because it attempts to invoke the viewForType method (as if the custom plugin created an UI, but it didn't)

We too see several problems with the authorization plugin: 1) a custom UI deriving from SFAuthorizationPluginView doesn't resize, but is constrained to stay in the 31 pixels that are normally used by the password field shown by the loginwindow 2) when the plugin uses SetResult to make the authentication process advance, nothing happens; I also made an experiment with a custom plugin that immediately calls SetResult in the MechanismInvoke, and the boot is left stuck at 25%. The syslog shows a message "loginwindow[120] <Notice>: There is still an active connection" that hints that the boot thinks something is still working.
