    <listener>
        <description>
            This listener is here especially used to expose the request in org.springframework.security.web.authentication.AuthenticationSuccessHandler.
            By default, that state is exposed by DispatcherServlet.
            So, it is not available before the actual request enters DispatcherServlet (e.g. in Spring Security filters).
