I'm trying to set up fine-grained security with Geoserver, but I can't
find a hook to intercept the request and modify it based on the users
permission.  For example, we sell access at the state or county level.  I
want to request a WMS layer, and have Geoserver only return features in the
state or county I've purchased.  I've got an entitlements server that gives
the state or county names that the user can access.  I just need to modify
the query or results to narrow to that region.

Is this possible with Geoserver's security?  Has anyone tried doing this?

Thanks,
Ron
