> LoginContextProviderImpl currently obtains JAAS configuration directly from the Configuration class. This works fine where the JAAS config is provided in std form like through file. This also works fine with Felix JAAS [1] where Felix JAAS is configured to replace the default configuration and thats ok when running in standalone env.
> However Felix JAAS also supports a SPI mode to fetch configuration which would allow running in App server env where the application server is also making use of JAAS. 
> Oak should provide an option to make use of the SPI mode when running in App Server  env so as to isolate the Oak's use of JAAS logic from App Server's usage
