I actually don't think it will be too bad. Basically I think it will
require:
1. Refactoring and slightly expanding the business logic we already have.
2. Broadening things slightly to support multiple versions. At least
1.3-1.5 are unlikely to require different Perl code to save a user. If we
change this functionality we can decide what to do about it.
3. Then we get to write the dancer app. Since the Perl modules will do
the heavy lifting, I don't expect this to be too bad.
Originally I planned 1-2 weeks to finish this. My plan is to release it as
a separate app called something like App::LedgerSMB::Admin on CPAN.
