Hey Shane,

I have one more question regarding the security layer you are currently building:

As far as i can see you are concentrating on the backend part (calls on Beanmethods).

What are your plans regarding frontend security (access to web pages / URLs)?

I would like to see the possibility to enforce HTTP or HTTPS access to certain URLs (the security hole arising by changing from HTTPS to HTTP could be prevented by creating a 2nd session identifier cookie that is _only_ transmitted by HTTPS requests - and verified that it isn't transfered by HTTP requests).

Further i would like to see some certificate authentication - i.e. access to example.com/admin is allowed only to people having a certain certificate (all employees) and the rest of the world gets a 404 not found.

So how are your plans regarding such matters?
