As far as a Tomcat method, the only thing I know of is J_SECURITY_CHECK, however Tomcat needs to feel like it redirected you there rather than something else doing so. I have also played around with the JA-SIG Java CAS Client in reference to the HTTP Servlet Request wrapper. As far as the Tomcat AccessLogValve is concerned, the filter doesn¹t work currently because it is applied at the context / application level where as AccessLogValve is at the server level and most likely handled before the request is passed onto the application.
Perhaps a server-wide filter could work. Let me see about chatting with some of the Tomcat folks about it.
