I've never used Spring Security by itself.  It used to be its own
project, so it might not be too bad.  As far as I know, there are
still issues with using Spring in GAE, but maybe those have been
solved, and they may not apply to using Spring Security by itself.

I'm currently using Apache Shiro.  I've been meaning to blog about it,
but alas.

http://shiro.apache.org/

Shiro will do role based method-level verification, but also allow you
to assign arbitrary permissions and assert those at any point.
