Add security restrictions for www/ static file hosting
------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-3951
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-3951
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: David Winslow
Assignee: Andrea Aime
Attachments: www-security.patch
Since we already have a security filter that applies based on URL paths, we could easily add support for password-protecting static files hosted through GeoServer's www/ directory. This could be a nice way of ensuring that a password prompt shows up before OpenLayers starts requesting tiles, for example.
Patch attached.
