How about the name "geronimo-admin-realm" for administrative security
realm?  If there are no objections to this, I will apply the patch in 48
hours.

It would be best if the administrative security realm (and login domain)
was named "AdminRealm" or something so it would be more convenient to
replace it.  Currently it's called "properties-login" and
"geronimo-properties-realm" and so on.  Which makes it pretty awkward to
replace it with a database-based realm, for example.
This change needs to propogate to web apps including the console.  I'm not
sure how the remote JMX access handles authentication (as in, for the deploy
tool), but presumably that would also need to be switched.
