Thanks to Ron Monzillo i found out about JSR 196 and how its supposed to make custom authentication a lot easier in Glassfish. So i had a look at the specs and yes, it does exactly whats been missing before.

It wasnt that easy to find docs about some parts of it, but i might just not have looked at the right places. It was still fairly easy to migrate my existing code to this api and within just a few hours everything was running just fine! :-)
