wrapped or not

         Key: GERONIMO-883
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-883
     Project: Geronimo
        Type: Bug
  Components: security  
    Versions: 1.0-M5    
    Reporter: David Jencks
 Assigned to: David Jencks 
     Fix For: 1.0-M5


Currently we are wrapping all principals returned from a "user" login module, 
and no one really knows whether each login module gets its own Subject or the 
Subject is shared.  We need to provide a flag in LoginModuleUse that selects 
either:

-- principals are wrapped and login module gets a new Subject
-- principals are not wrapped and login module gets a shared Subject.

The first is likely to be used for normal login modules that actually verify 
something based on user input, the second for things like auditing or mapping 
credentials for connectors where access to principals generated by other login 
modules is required.
