SlideLoginModule will not work with Jetty 5

[Rob Moore <ro...@yahoo.com>]

After some trolling, I discovered that Jetty's JAASGroup.ROLES field 
changed from "roles" in 4.2 to "__roles__" in 5. As a result, 
JAASUserPrincipal.getRoles() expects the group object to be named the 
equivalent of JAASGroup.ROLES and doesn't find the appropriate 
SlideGroup (since it passes back the former value).

Anyhow, I hope this helps somebody along the line. Alas, I don't see any 
immediate way to fix this issue while maintaining backward 
compatibility. Perhaps SlideLoginModule could be made configurable so 
that a different implementation of SlideGroup or more generally 
java.security.acl.Group could be substituted.

Regards,

Rob
