Alexander Klimetschek commented on SLING-3179:
----------------------------------------------

{quote}this is how JAAS works{quote}
Yes. It seems quite complex and IMO we shouldn't use or advertise it very much 
- it seems you can easily mess it up.

IIUC, this is for the use case of external authentication where the repository 
needs to trust the outside. IMO this must be a config option in Jackrabbit and 
by default off. And use LoginModule or the loginByService mechanism for pre 
authentication.
