I understand. My problem it twofold. In order to make an
authentication decision ...
- I need to have an access to some information from HTTP Request,
- I need to be able build HTTP Response (basically, I need to be
able to issue challenge in response to authentication request).
As I stated in my original post, I think that right place to put this
kind of functionality is authenticator. My original question was, if
it is possible to register new Authenticator without re-compiling
Tomcat.

I was just commenting that I can not see how JAASRealm
(or any Realm for that matter) can help me
Specifying JAASRealm as the <Realm> gives you the opportunity to
implement your own LoginModule. Such a LoginModule can utilize any
number of authentication mechanisms - all under your control.
