[gatein-dev] PortalClusteredSSOSupportValve issue in Tomcat

This api inconsistency between Tomcat and JBossWeb really sucks:-(

I think that PortalClusteredSSOSupportValve is not the only one valve 
class, which implements start() method. We have more such valve classes 
(I am aware at least about SSODelegateValve). So it seems that moving 
single PortalClusteredSSOSupportValve to packaging/jboss-as7 won't be 
sufficient...

Can't we do something like override tomcat classloader 
org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader and handle this at 
classloader level?
