Seam security - extending Identity class
----------------------------------------

                 Key: JBSEAM-1414
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1414
             Project: JBoss Seam
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Security
    Affects Versions: 1.2.0.GA
            Reporter: Dupont Dupont
            Priority: Minor

I would like to extend org.jboss.seam.security.Identity class in order to integrate Seam with 3rd party libraries such as Acegi.

For this to work I need to overload the Identity subject. Since the subject attribute is private *and* Identity class access it always directly (doesn't use the getter) *and* there's no public or protected setter, I cannot override it.

Could Identity class me modified such as :
1. subject attribute is made protected OR
2. adding a protected setter attribute OR
3. [better solution I think] always acceeding to subject attribut via its getter.

This issue is related with the post http://jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=110367

Thanks
