I'm not sure I was able to follow you.
Having a private database would be fun - cause you can change passwords
without recompiling anything.. However this probably means you have to
patch all applications?
passwords in store and restricting access:
think about henry and sally choosing the same password by accident...
Now the trouble starts:
- one can notice that a derivation won't be built - thus he / she knows
that another user is using the same password
- user id's would not work - cause many users should be able to
use the same { pwd = "same-password"} derivation. ACL's would be a
way. This building a derivation which already exists would mean adding
access rights for a user.
Which use cases are bothering you making you think about this issue?
