Server can crash during the operations with elytron subsystem. Specifically - when I try create 'simple-permission-mapper' and perfrom server reload, then server crush with following error:

See 'Steps to reproduce' field. This can be easily reproducible by that steps always.
From the error it seems that 'permissions' for 'permission-mappings' should be required during add operation. But at least server should print some error but not crash at all.
