When a new PA is deployed with several role definitions, these roles still needs to be created by hand
before they can be assigned to a user.
As the required name of these roles (as derived from the web.xml) is predefined, I want to add the feature
to automatically create new RolePrincipals on deployment.
As initial implementation I'm going to use a new jetspeed-portlet.xml meta-data definition: <roles create="true"/>
to enable this feature.
Also, if nobody objects, I'd like to make this the default behavior once this works and then
<roles create="false"/> can be used to prevent it.

Autocreate RolePrincipals for PA role definitions on deployment
After some thought this didn't seem right because it really wouldn't be meta data in the sense you would
want to store it in the database. Its only a deployment instruction.
I implemented it quite simple now by allowing optional configuration of the PortletApplicationManager.
Just set appropriate values for the roleManager property and autoCreateRoles property.
