I was looking for exactly this functionality 2 weeks ago to use with TomEE. I ended up having to write a tomcat AuthenticatorValve and a custom Realm class to implement the same thing you've done with your standard JASPIC implementation (using SocialAuth as you have done). It would be great to have this, especially for the Social Authentication scenario. Any situation where you want to access the HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse to perform redirects and callbacks in the authentication "work flow" would benefit from this.
