Custom Remote User Handler

[Christopher Bland]

Hi Chad,

After thinking about this, after my post I guess what I am really asking 
is can REMOTE_USER be configured to support multiple 
*protectedServletPath *statements.  My reason for wanting to have a 
seperate path is the authentication method I am going to deploy is for a 
subset of our users and as we Shibbolize other apps in the future I 
would like to keep the possibility of using REMOTE_USER as an option 
verses having /idp/Authn/RemoteUser dedicated to a mechanism that does 
not service our entire community
