Description

The AuthenticationServletFilter is not easily extensible to handle error cases. I would like to add onOkRenderingResultsStatus, onMustRedirectRenderingResultsStatus, and onErrorRenderingResultsStatus methods to AuthenticationServletFilter like we have for GadgetRenderingServlet. This would allow implementors to inject their own filter that extends AuthenticationServletFilter in order to do extra processing without having to rewrite the entire filter.
