JAASAutheniticationFilter is a standard JAX-RS 2.0 ContainerRequestFilter and hence it is not going to be removed.  Not sure what you mean by the standard interceptors.
JAASAutheniticationFilter and doAs just does not work due to some JAX-RS runtime implementation restrictions, but to be honest, IMHO I do not see it as a major issue. I'm open though to updating the filter to actually getting working with doAs.

I do not think JAASLoginInterceptor needs to become any more complex than it already is.

> Currently we return a Fault with a AuthenticationException when JAAS login fails.
> The proper response would be a 401 status with a suitable WWW-Authenticate header.
> I experimented with turning the AuthenticationException into a 401 response in the http transport. Not sure where to take auth type and realm from though. I am also not sure how to distinguish basic auth from WSS Security UsernameToken. As in the second case 401 is probably not correct.
