Actually, there are a couple more.

3. Use Alberto's TurboPeakSecurity (somehow mushed in with our  
identity APIs for backwards compatibility) (which is similar in idea  
to #313)
4. Use a WSGI auth provider

I don't want to get too much into implementation details on this list  
(those belong on the trunk list), but this is a fine place to discuss  
the needs.

The biggest need I see is that we need to disambiguate the  
authentication and authorization. They are two separate tasks that  
would likely need different plugins.

The ideal would probably be some hybrid approach... starting with a  
WSGI provider, but possibly making an authorization plugin that uses  
RuleDispatch.

As always, I'm looking to leverage as much good stuff that's out  
there as we can. I know that James Gardner has something up his  
sleeve, but he mentioned that it's not ready for a big audience yet.
