For the moment, it is viable. But longer term it would be better to be able to integrate with external sources and avoid having the user records internally. The main problem here is What about users that haven't logged in, how do they get added to groups, or encouraged to log in (invited), so although you can add them at login, I think you will have to push them all into the UserManager and maintain their status by pushing updated.
