> How can we have users have authenticated against AD or SQL

Using the AuthenticationManagerImpl component, which is the default,
you may define multiple authentication handlers against which the
username/password credentials will be tried sequentially until
success.  Authentication fails if and only if all handlers fail for a
particular credential type, UsernamePasswordCredentials in this case.
While it may not be desirable to attempt credentials against a backend
you _know_ will fail, this approach benefits from simplicity.  There
are, of course, other strategies that would offer better performance.
For example, you could develop custom credential types suitable for
each logically separate backend and pair each one with a particular
handler using DirectMappingAuthenticationManagerImpl.
