> The current Shindig code base allows only a single parameter (the secure token) to be passed from the javascript to the GadgetDataServlet. This is hard coded in the GadgetDataServlet::doPost method by pulling the st parameter from the HttpRequestObject and then calling createResponse with this parameter.
> In our specific environment, we need to pass multiple parameters, mainly because we want to treat the security token as completely opaque to the Java container because our social data is stored per domain and we have implementations of the various service interfaces that know how to access these stores. So we just hand out the token that was created per domain to the stores. To select a store, we need one additional parameter, namely the domain to select the store. 
> The attached patch adds an adapter to the GadgetDataServlet, that allows passing of an arbitrary set of parameters. There is a default implementation which transfers the secure token and the request parameter (just as the hard coded implementation did). This gave us enough flexibility to pass additional parameters to the createResponse method.
