Actually, that's exactly what the osuser project is about. It's currently
in development, and allows for various providers to talk to various
backends to do things. It's specifically designed to handle user
credentials, authentication, profile, and group information, and
separation of these features across various backends. So for example, it
allows for a RDMBS user profile storage mechanism, while authenticating
against LDAP. It's still in development though, but there are already a
couple of projects using it. Feel free to have a look at it, osuser module
in opensymphony!
