RemoteAddrValve for a specific URL pattern

All,

I'm looking for something like the RemoteAddrValve but that can be used
on a particular URL pattern. Basically, I have an administrative "health
check" URL that I'd like to hit, but only from approved clients. The
rest of the application should be open to everyone.

The RemoteAddrValve appears to be valid at its narrowest scope in the
Context, which is still too wide for me.

I see that tuckey's urlrewrite library can probably do this for me
(redirect somewhere else if the address doesn't match), but it seems a
bit overkill.

I also have Apache httpd out front would could be used, but I think I'd
like to have this configuration inside my webapp instead of relying on
the fronting web server configuration to be correct.

Does anyone have any other ideas? I could certainly write my own filter,
but I figure that someone has either another idea, or an existing filter
that I might be able to borrow.

Thanks,
- -chris

I recommend though.  The setup is very easy and flexible, and the author 
claims it is very light-weight. I have used only a tiny portion of it, 
but it worked right away to do what I wanted, in 10 minutes all told 
including reading the doc.
