At this point there's not a lot of API change left.  Just adding the new
interface and expanding which exceptions are thrown.

Using AcessControlException as Jody suggested bothers me a bit as the
Javadocs tie it to specific other components.  I do like the idea of
existing exception classes, although a subclass of GeoWebCacheException
would probably be less disruptive.

This proposal has been held open for a while now and I want to make
sure you are not stuck.

     This is the API for upstream GeoWebCache and I didn't want to unduly
     restrict future development there.   I'm happy to consider making
     Spring
     Security part of the GWC API, but being flexible seemed like a better
     starting point for discussion.
