Hi Thomas,

I have seen this done in a project. As you probably know the Spring Security 
filter (actually its a whole filter chain) is configured in your root 
WebApplicationContext. You then configure a DelegatingFilterProxy in web.xml 
that finds the filter in the context and delegates all requests to it.

With Magnolia and Blossom you do it the same way, except instead of using 
DelegatingFilterProxy you use InstallationAwareDelegatingFilterProxy from 
Blossom. It will defer looking up the filter in the context until magnolia has 
installed/updated and your module have created the root WebApplicationContext.

HTH,
