Description

The documentation at http://karaf.apache.org/manual/2.2.2/developers-guide/security-framework.html gives examples for leveraging role policies, but the default one (which is to use the class names) has no examples and is not even mentionned.

We need an example such as https://gist.github.com/1109431 and clear documentation about the class names used by default:

• org.apache.karaf.jaas.modules.UserPrincipal
• org.apache.karaf.jaas.modules.RolePrincipal
• org.apache.karaf.jaas.modules.GroupPrincipal
