Yup its interceptors are still inclined towards web apps. However,
might be interesting to
explore if we can have interceptor for FtpServer. Alternatively, I
think we can always use it UserManager
implementation. With the full framework, it is called by interceptor,
based on URL's. We can programatically
call its UserManager, to get the UserDetails  and authenticate the user.

Well let me see if I can explore this further over the weekend, have
to start working on MINA chapter 2
Each time I think, I will rest this weekend and something really
interesting comes up :-)
