> DefaultWebSecurityManager seems to be almost capable of functioning even if 
> servlet api isn't available DefaultSecurityManager. There are couple things 
> that currently prohibits utilizing this feature.
> 1. DefaultWebSecurityManager is fixed to deliver a WebSubjectContext 
> implementation but ClassUtils.isAvailable("javax.servlet.ServletRequest")  
> could be used to determine if falling back to super implementation would be 
> more appropriate. A pluggable subject context provider/factory would 
> eliminate the need of using classpath determination inside the implementation.
> 2. WebUtils has couple of static field dependencies to servlet api which are 
> trivial to factor out.
> 3. ServletContainerSessionManager is not designed to fall back to super class 
> when req/resp do not meet it's needs while creating a session and it only 
> generates an exception from such an attempt. A simple 
> ClassUtils.isAvailable("javax.servlet.http.HttpSession") could be used to 
> make a decision between it and DefaultWebSessionManager. Alternative approach 
> would be deriving the former from latter and using the fallback pattern 
> mentioned is case 1.
