For example `DefaultRealmContextResolver`, a realm is resolved from request headers, and operations are performed based on the resolved realm identifier. Review Comment: This imho should come as the first item, since this is a key component that is triggered even before the authentication phase. ########## site/content/in-dev/unreleased/realm.md: ########## @@ -0,0 +1,61 @@ +--- +# +# Licensed to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) under one +# or more contributor license agreements.
