So after a little irc chat  with <elecharny> and <kayyagari> (thank you guys!) 
I found out that the way to go would be to implement a custom partition.
According to <elecarny> this not so easy and may take some time to implement.
Hopefully he will find some time this weekend to write and upload a sample 
partition implementation that i can use as a starting point.
I also got to know that some guys have already done something similar for 
oracle years ago(carefull! outdated), and that it is still somewhere in a 
branch (maybe you know where?).
Since basically i just want to do some authentication an alternative would be, 
to write an authenticator that delegates the authentication to the DB (Should 
take about 2 days according to elecarny)
