We build a web application where we have to give the
user the option to change his/her password during
login. So it would be nice to have a real configurable
AuthenticatorFactory (to provide my own Authenticator
implementation).
At this time we have to subclass SecurityFilter and
AuthenticatorFactory just to inject an own
AuthenticatorImplementation (as only the class
implementing the filter can be configured in web.xml).
Why not add an filter-config-parameter
"FormImplementingClass" or "BasicImplementingClass"
where we cann provide the classname of the implementing
class? I already implemented this one and it is running
here stable and smooth ...

BTW: Many Thanks to all contributors for building such
a great piece of software.
