I'm not sure exactly what you're asking, but my guess is "no".

Userauth methods return user objects, which implies that the client
should be allowed to do most anything that user is allowed to do.
These objects are usually looked up using the user_db abstraction.

I'd like to hook spki authorization into lsh, but that's nothing that
exists today. The simplest way to go about that is to put an spki
"tag" into the user object before it's returned from a userauth
method. Tags could be things like

  (tag (login ...))
  (tag (command foo))
  (tag (sftp read (* prefix "/home/nisse/pub"))
