--- Comment #2 from Toby Hobson <toby.hob...@cloudseal.com> ---
Hi Christopher

"Cloudseal" is certainly not a requirement, SAML2 would indeed be a better
name. I think the term is a hangover from our current implementation of the
authenticator which we offer with our product (we describe it as a "Cloudseal
Authenticaor). The only thing I would point out is that the code uses a class
called CloudsealPrincipal. This would have to remain because CloudsealPrincipal
is defined in our saml2-core library. We may refactor this class at some stage
but there's nothing SAML specific about it (and we also use it for our OAUTH2
implementation)

There's a transitive dependency on CombinedRealm.getPrincipal(String) - As
mentioned in the bugzilla comments the SamlAuthenticator can lookup roles
against a configured realm. We modified Realm to add authenticate(String).
RealmBase.authenticate(String) calls getPrincipal(String) and CombinedRealm
extends RealmBase. The modification allows a developer to use CombinedRealm
with the SamlAuthenticator if he wants.
