/**
 * Servlet Filter that exposes the request to the current thread,
 * through both {@link org.springframework.context.i18n.LocaleContextHolder} and
 * {@link RequestContextHolder}. To be registered as filter in {@code web.xml}.
 *
 * <p>Alternatively, Spring's {@link org.springframework.web.context.request.RequestContextListener}
 * and Spring's {@link org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet} also expose
 * the same request context to the current thread.
 *
 * <p>This filter is mainly for use with third-party servlets, e.g. the JSF FacesServlet.
 * Within Spring's own web support, DispatcherServlet's processing is perfectly sufficient.
