Craig, I really wish you had to "eat your own cooking" on this one.  I don't 
think you realize how many support requests, how much confusion, and how much 
frustration are generated because of this "feature".  The only information that 
needs to be communicated to the user is "We cannot log you in at this time due 
to a system error. Please try back later".  Many large websites do this, and it 
is a flaw in Tomcat that it cannot.  A simple error message like the one I just 
mentioned is not going to reduce security in any significant way.  The benefits 
outweigh the costs, big time.
