What I have said is that before I as a gatekeeper would accept code
that makes fundamental changes to the way authentication and
authorization works, I would need to see evidence that the model
is useful to a broader community than your single cell.  That means
developing the code and shipping it as a supplemental package until
it achieves an installed base and real world experience.
