AFAIR, it should, but in this case it does not matter. I've tried to login from
completely separate browsers IE and FireFox, so they don't have any shared
state (cookies, etc) - the same problem. The second login gets group principal
of previous login (made from separate browser).

Later I'll attach my configuration, but the disproof is very simple. If I login
as a regular user after server restart, I will get only two principals -
GeronimoGroupPrincipal("user") and GeronimoUserPrincipal("someusername"). I get
two group principals only after second login (e.g, login as a regular user
first, then as a manager, or vice-versa).
> Repeated login (after session invalidation) with different credentials

> Consider we have two users, "user" with role "user" and "manager" with role
> "manager" and two secured areas /user/* and /manager/*, so only "user"'s can
> access pages with URL /user/* and only "manager"'s can access pages with URL
> /manager/*.
> If we log in as "user", we can access only /user/* pages, "403 Forbidden" if
> we try to access /manager/* pages. It is OK.
> Now, if we clean the session (request.getSession().invalidate()), we will be
> logged out, so we cannot access nor /user/*, nor /manager/* pages - server
> redirects to the login page. It is OK.
> But if we login second time, as a "manager", we can access both page sets -
> /user/* and /manager/*! It means that authenticated user owns both roles
> "user" and "manager", but this is impossible combination!
