I am working on a similar project over at:
http://code.google.com/p/google-authenticator-for-android/

The end goal is to simulate the Google Account Authenticator found on
the Droid so that developers can use Google Accounts on their AVDs, as
well as people with 2.0 phones without Google Accounts (since the
Google Account isn't part of the AOSP, like Google Maps, Gmail, etc.).

It looks like we are at *about* the same point in writing the
authenticators, ie: not very far. :P  I do have some TODO comments
throughout that talk about some of the questions that I still have as
to how things work though.
