Hmm - I don't remember having to set up such a filter, when I played around with @RolesAllowed on a JAX-RS resource deployed onto GlassFish...

Is this filter only needed on non-JavaEE6 containers? (And if so, would you mind sharing how it figures things out automatically on GF, but not on Tomcat? I'm just curious :-) )
