Updating the service parameter

[Scott Battaglia]

Yes, all of CAS's Request parameters are stored as part of the
HttpServletRequest and retrieved as via getParameter(...).  Obtaining an
HttpServletRequest's attribute (via getAttribute(...)) is not the same
thing.

However, the default HttpServletRequest API does not expose a way to add
parameters. You'll either have to redirect and add the parameter or wrap the
request.   There is also another thread detailing how to set a default
service is one is not provided.  I don't have the link handy but a quick
search of Nabble should uncover it.
