Yes this is a Bug in V3P and is now fixed in latest promoted builds.

However the class which meets the specs in V3P is com.sun.appserv.security.api.AppservPasswordLoginModule. This went undetected during our QE testing due to a mistake on my part.

updates for V3P is only for customers who sign up. Otherwise i believe Promoted Builds are surely more stable than nightly builds. An entire QE cycle is run before a promotion happens.
