I'm asking about this because I have previously discussed 
making the file rep/users.xml (i.e. MemoryUsers) a writable, 
updatable resource. 

A question for Geert is: 

If my authentication source is a _database_, and I call 
RoleUsersManager addUser(..) or removeUser(..), is the 
DB updated to reflect the change, as one would expect ? 


Because the issue w.r.t. rep/users.xml is:  If I write a 
new class MutableMemoryUsers, and I call RoleUsersManager 
addUser(..) or removeUser(..) on it, how do I tell Rife to 

1) mirror the changes to rep/users.xml , AND

2) update Rife's runtime authentication database 

In other words.. (a) how much of these is there already 
support for, and (b) how much new code must be written, 
and (c) where are the triggers to the Rife runtime engine. 

In any case it might be wiser to move to an in-DB authentication 
source, if the addition and removal of users is already handled.
