Accessing connection context in handlers

[Luke Lu]

I wanted to implement logging (and later ACL) for a thrift broker/ 
server. But I'm having trouble getting connection info (remote ip  
address etc.) from server handlers. In other rpc alternatives, you get  
this from a connection context passed in as an argument (e.g., Ice's  
Ice::Current).

I remember someone submitted a patch but I can't seem to find a JIRA  
ticket/patch for this. How else do people implement API specific  
logging and access control? Help?

P.S. Apology if this is a resend (I got no ack from the list server,  
but no post/response either.)
