Adding a properties form for a subclass of PropRequestFilter

I see that a w3c.jigsaw.proxy.CacheProp properties entry is available from Admin/Properties...
and that this is implemented by the proxy (regardless of whether the CacheFilter
is specified as a filter). I would like to know if it's possible using the extension
mechanisms within Jigsaw to add a properties entry for a filter I am creating?
How would I go about this? I understand the format of the class, but what would I
link this class into so that it is registered and available from the admin page? As
opposed to the approach used to load CacheProp, I'd like this properties list to be
loaded only when my filter is loaded (during proxy init).

Will I have to also modify the HTTPManager so that it reads the attributes I have defined?
Or would I use a different approach than CacheFilter uses to retrieve my filter's related
property attributes?

Other ideas?

Thanks,

Paul.
