Pedro Igor commented on ELY-428:
--------------------------------

Wouldn't the deployer be specific to Keycloak-SSO subsystem and to the Console SSO Use Case ?

My point is not really specific to WFLY but to any web container we support in elytron-web.

Beside that, IIRC, elytron-keycloak will replace Keycloak WildFly/Undertow Adapters once we have ELY fully integrated with the application server. Which will provide a much better integration with the server and solely based on ELY APIs. In this case, we must be able to support a eager approach to initialization.

I've in my session notes a minor change to the ```HttpServerAuthenticationMechanismFactory``` to allow the factory to put things in the application scope (such as the config) during the configuration of the security handler. So we could just grab these things from authentication mechanisms when actually evaluating a request.

> It should be possible to configure a HTTP mechanism during deployment in order to parse/load configuration and reuse it in subsequent requests to an application.
> The most common use case for that is around mechanisms that need to read some configuration from inside a deployment (or provided by the mech config) when it is being deployed to the server.
