Whew. You had me worried. The current Lift system works with Mapper. If you're using JPA you pretty much have to roll your own. Even with the Mapper version, plenty of work is involved. So I agree, this is an area where it would be nice to have something ready to go for folks who just need by-URL protection and a login/logout page.
But I think it's perfectly reasonable to expect those doing more enterprise level systems to drop in a full solution. I'm not sure it's worth spending a lot of Lift time reinventing the wheel there. Making it easier to use something like SS might be a better route. I'm still pretty vague on all this, so open to arguments both ways. Thanks for your comments, Tim. As always, they help to keep things focused. Chas.
