Environment: config/struts layer

Description:
We need to figure out how to handle login/logout.

Struts In Action recomends making use of a UserContainer layer which acts as a strongly typed Session container.

Right now we are just recording things like the selected data store as their own entry in session.

This should change and we should use a UserContainer as managed by login/logout opperations. May need a separate security authorization mapping in web.xml - I am unclear on how the details work right now :frowning:
