Default RolesInterceptor not well suited @portlet environment, sending 403 is 
forbidden in portlets
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: WW-2769
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-2769
             Project: Struts 2
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core Interceptors
    Affects Versions: 2.0.11.2
         Environment: Linux 2.6.x, Pluto 1.1.6 & Tomcat 6.0.18
            Reporter: Torsten Krah


The default RolesInterceptor does handle a forbidden request in the 
handleRejection method with a 403 Error.
However, sending a 403 directly to the request back to the user is forbidden in 
a portlet.
The default RolesInterceptor implementation does not handle this very well.

A workaround is to override the handleRejection method of the RolesInterceptor 
(and using this one instead of the default) which does throw a custom 
exception, which is handled by a global-exception definition which sent the 
user to a custom error page displaying a forbidden message.
