Ok, I'm starting to get an understanding of your requirements.  Let's address 
the issues separately.

First of all, redirection - I'm not a fan of having the JAAS login module 
performing a redirect, I think this is a bad thing.  Instead, how about you use 
login-view, and simply have this view do a client-side redirect to your other 
authentication page?

<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0; URL=http://authenticate.institution.edu";>

Secondly, detecting that the user has authenticated.  You'll notice in the 
Identity class that there are two isLoggedIn() methods.  The one that accepts a 
boolean parameter provides a means to perform an authentication "on the spot" 
so to speak, but *only* if the user's credentials are set.  In the default 
implementation of the isCredentialsSet() method it checks that a username and 
password are provided.  If you are instead authenticating via a cookie, you'll 
need to override this method and have it return true if there is a valid cookie 
present.  That way, when you set #{identity.isLoggedIn(true)}  on your page it 
should actually perform an authentication.
