> Role names can be easily misconfigured resulting in security holes.  However app developers typically known which roles are available in their environment.  A small tweak to RolesInterceptor could make it easy for developers to have role verification.  When the roles are invalid the RolesInterceptor could fail-fast, quickly bringing the issue to attention.
