CSRF Guard 2.2 Roadmap

Overview
The purpose of this article is to maintain the desired change requests for the upcoming CSRFGuard releases. If there is a particular feature that you would like to see implemented, please feel free to add it to the appropriate sections below.

Planned Changes
The following is a list of changes that are tentatively scheduled for the J2EE CSRFGuard 2.2 release:


 * Port the existing configuration file to an XML based config file
 * Allow the user to define a list of "known safe extensions" that do not require CSRF checks
 * Allow the user to define "entry point pages" whose token is never validated but a token always gets inserted
 * Allow the user to define "unprotected pages" that we will simply ignore. By default, all pages are "protected"
 * Modify the response handlers to only place the token in links/forms that point to our origin
 * Update the response handlers to support the various locations that an "href" and "src" attribute can be placed in the HTML 5 spec
 * Update the JavaScriptHandler to support the "embed" tag. Is there a better way to update the attributes where we don't need to know the tag name, like the HTMLParserHandler?
 * Rebuild the project in NetBeans and create jUnit test cases where applicable
