I'm creating a new LoginHandler extension to implement some features of 
our existing web SSO system.  I basically took the existing RemoteUser 
LoginHandler as a basis, and made a couple small tweaks.  So I have a 
RemoteUserLoginHandler that issues a redirect to a RemoteUserAuthServlet.

I have a configuration item that I want to set once (as an element in 
the <LoginHandler> declaration in handler.xml), but need to retrieve the 
value from both the LoginHandler and the AuthServlet.  What would be the 
best way to approach this?

In the worst case I'll just end up hardcoding the value, but it would be 
really nice to be able to change this variable without recompiling.
