Turn off SSO login for some contextClassRef URIs

Thanks Scott,

Is the session cache strictly tied to the ClassRef?

I still want authenticaiton using ClassRef 1 to allow session to be cached.
So if authn is requested with ClassRef 2, then that cache from ClassRef 1
is not valid.

Think, that is the case, but just checking.

If the caching is separated, then I think your solution would work for me.

/Sefan
