Igor A Tarasov commented on JBAS-5976:
--------------------------------------

5) This is not my example - it is taken from official Tomcat FAQ (http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/CharacterEncoding#Q4) for testing GET and POST character encoding issues.

> Simple test page from Tomcat FAQ (http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/CharacterEncoding#Q4) work right in non-secure web-app.
> After apply BASIC web authentication, character encoding of posted data is broken.
> After authentication, request.setCharactEncoding("UTF-8") in request filter does no effect too.
> No matter which login module in use, org.jboss.security.auth.spi.UsersRolesLoginModule or my own login module.
> Seems that authentication cause access the Request object in app server _before_ it can be accessed in user request filter. 
> After that, setting request.setCharacterEncoding not work.
> Insecure web-application work fine and non-ASCII characters appear correctly.
> This bug starts in CR-releases of JBoss 5.
