Hi Christian,

What are your plans for moving your module to an extension or core? It 
would be nice if this was done before we start patching web.xml to 
handle the request mapping. That said, I understand that that is a big 
hurdle for such a small patch... so it is not a -1, just a comment/question.

An alternative would be to come up with a generic "/security" mapping in 
web.xml, and have your mapping declared in your applicationContext.xml, 
mapping it to "security/geoxaml". Not sure if this makes sense for you, 
but it would allow you to do your "routing" in your plugin, rather than 
in the core. Having a root "security" context would also make sense if 
we foresee future security plugins which will have servlets/controllers 
similar to the geoxacml one.

2c,

-Justin
