    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/EJBTHREE-1756?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12482490#action_12482490 ] 

Chris Imershein commented on EJBTHREE-1756:
-------------------------------------------

Could this be related at all to #JBAS-7037 ?
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-7037

In any case, if 1756 could be put onto the road map for JBAS at some time, that would be appreciated.

Notes in the JBoss Forum thread suggest a possible issue regarding JBossWebRealm.authenticate, SubjectInfo, and CredentialIdentity -- however a "workaround" indicates the custom principal can be retrieved from the RealmMapping inside EJBContextImpl  (but only after using reflection to access a private implementation field).

A stack-overflow question has also been created for a similar issue:
