Aaron Evans commented on JS2-712:
---------------------------------

I tried this out and it seems to do what I want, so thanks very much.  Sorry to 
take so long to actually use a feature that I requested!

One question though:

In the LoginProxyServlet, you redirect to:

"/login/redirector?token=" + token.getToken() where the token value is the 
username-timestamp.

Is this token request parameter used later on in the chain? It doesn't seem to 
affect the behavior of the authentication mechanism or the security valve.

The reason I ask is if it is informational only, I'd suggest removing it.  In 
my case, it stays visible for a second or two while our dashboard loads and it 
just seems weird to see the username in the URL. 

Anyhow, obviously not a big deal provided it isn't a security issue (and I'm 
pretty sure it is not since I tried doing some basic URL manipulation).

Anyhow, thanks again.

> Create new servlet session upon login. In 2.1, the guest session is continued 
> when the user authenticates, which is a valid use-case such as an e-commerce 
> portal which allows users to delay their login but still create a shopping 
> cart before logging in, and then carrying over the session state to the 
> logged user. This enhancement will make the "creation of new session event" 
> configurable in the Spring configuration. The default behavior will still be 
> to not create a new session.
