Ken,

They should work just fine since the HttpServletRequest methods related to
security are all supported:
getUserPrinciple()
getRemoteUser()
isUserInRole()

Any tags that work with container-managed security by calling these methods
should be 100% functional with SecurityFilter. That said, I have not done
extensive testing with the Struts tags, but I fully expect that they will
work.

Do the SecurityFilter principals/roles propagate down to
 JSP Tags?  I think it should be ok since they use servlet
 technology as a base, but I'm wondering if anyone has tried
 them successfully.
