Christopher Elkins updated SLING-599:
-------------------------------------

    Attachment: SlingHttpServletRequestImpl.java.patch

Adds support for authentication/authorization methods in HttpServletRequest by 
adapting the attributes prescribed by HttpContext and set by SlingAuthenticator.

Note: The UserPrincipal class was borrowed as-is from 
<http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jackrabbit/trunk/jackrabbit-core/src/main/java/org/apache/jackrabbit/core/security/UserPrincipal.java>.

> Although SlingAuthenticator does populate some authentication state in the 
> request, it does so in an non-portable way (from a Servlet API perspective). 
> For example, it sets the remote user identifier as a request attribute 
> whereas one familiar with the Servlet API would expect to obtain it by 
> calling getRemoteUser().
