Autocreate RolePrincipals for PA role definitions on deployment
---------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: JS2-211
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JS2-211
     Project: Jetspeed 2
        Type: New Feature
  Components: Deployment, Security  
    Versions: 2.0-dev/cvs    
    Reporter: Ate Douma
 Assigned to: Ate Douma 
    Priority: Minor
     Fix For: 2.0-dev/cvs


When a new PA is deployed with several role definitions, these roles still 
needs to be created by hand
before they can be assigned to a user.

As the required name of these roles (as derived from the web.xml) is 
predefined, I want to add the feature
to automatically create new RolePrincipals on deployment.

As initial implementation I'm going to use a new jetspeed-portlet.xml meta-data 
definition: <roles create="true"/>
to enable this feature.

Also, if nobody objects, I'd like to make this the default behavior once this 
works and then 
<roles create="false"/> can be used to prevent it.
