Yeah, I'd really like to have LDAP authentication. We don't yet have a
ticket open for it; do you want to open one?
I'd like to build a class hierarchy for auth engines, something like:
AuthenticationStore
LDAPAuthenticationStore
DrupalAuthenticationStore
MediaWikiAuthenticationStore
...
I think that authentication store is orthogonal to authentication
credentials; the same kind of credentials (username & password, OpenID,
biometrics (!)) could work in different back-end stores.
I think someone in #laconica asked to get started on this, but I don't
know where it's gone.
