Fascinating reading. My question would be: why does anyone want to have a
resource that doesn't need authentication (no security-constraint) but then
checks the authentication status, anyway (calls getPrincipal, isUserInRole,
etc.)?

If this "bug" was really ruining anyone's day, isn't it a simple matter of
providing an aliased URL to the same resource that /is/ protected by a
security-constrains and always sending authenticated users to /that/ URL
instead?

Glad the 9-year saga is over...
