Hi Kamardine,
I don't think you can directly use the waffle libraries with GeoServer,
without writing some wrapper codes to integrate it with the GeoServer
Security system (I see from the documentation that the libraries include
Spring filters, so it should not be that difficult). Talking about
impersonation in particular, I am curious to know what you need
impersonation for, so that I can understand if there is any way to achieve
what you need with GeoServer security.
