-----------------------------------
This has now been improved and has better syntax. Take a look at [AMQ-3883] for
more details
> Authorization plugin should have configurable principal classes

> Key: AMQ-908

> Currently, if you configure the authorization plugin, it assumes that all
> principals listed should be of type
> {{org.apache.activemq.jaas.GroupPrincipal}}. This is OK if you're using
> ActiveMQ LoginModules, but since there's a fairly small supply of those, it
> would be great if you could use arbitrary login modules and tell the
> authorization plugin which principal classes to use. For example,
> {{groupClass="weblogic.security.principal.WLSGroupImpl}} or something like
> that. A good first step would be to let you change the group class. A good
> second step would be to let you specify user and group classes and then
> somehow indicate which names are which (e.g.
> {{admin="administrators,user:aaron,user:bob"}} or whatever). Someday maybe
> it will be nice to support any arbitrary combination of principal classes but
> that seems far away.
> When instantiating the principal classes, I imagine we should use a
> constructor with a single String argument if available, or else a default
> constructor plus a "setName" method, or else I guess bail.
