You have to code into the app. You could write a filter that did a
HttpServletRequest.isUserInRole() We should probably provide something
like that...

Servlet specs has HttpServletRequestWrapper where we can easily override
all the methods like isUserInRole, getRemoteUser, getUserPrincipal etc
and fill with the stuff from the token and send this request wrapper
down to filter chain. Not sure if we should do it automatically or have
configurable flag for it.
