[jira] [Created] (SHIRO-464) Support role mapping similar to PermissionResolver and RolePermissionResolver

Kevin Minder created SHIRO-464:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Support role mapping similar to PermissionResolver and RolePermissionResolver
                 Key: SHIRO-464
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHIRO-464
             Project: Shiro
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Authorization (access control) 
    Affects Versions: 1.2.2
            Reporter: Kevin Minder
             Fix For: 1.2.3


The basic idea is to provide a plug-in point that can be used to resolve principals to roles or map input roles to output roles to be externalized from an AuthorizingRealm.  The primary use case that is driving this for me is to be able to resolve group principals provided by an AuthenticatingRealm.  This will allow for multiple AuthorizingRealm to share RoleMapper implementations.
