Joseph Schmidt commented on CLK-406:
------------------------------------

> If you modify the Menu class as described below, you can use your own role 
> checking 
Could you please supply a patch that can be automatically applied?

Also, it would be nice if click examples would use and demonstrate this feature 
(e.g. in securty/* pages).

thanks,
Joseph.

> Please improve the Menu Control, by allowing the user to have a plug-able 
> role cheking for the menu items.
> Right now the Menu Control is using HttpRequest#isUserInRole(String role), 
> but most webapplications
> don't use this strategy for user/roles management, so this method returns 
> false for all those cases :(.
> This is very limiting, making the existing Menu Control useless for most user 
> applications, thus forcing the users
> to make their own menu controls (or the hack the original one). 
> Please allow to set a different method for this operation by the user (if no 
> other is used, of course, the default one - mentioned above - would be used 
> as before - so 100% backwards compatible).
> Thank you,
> Demetrios.
