Hey Brian

I think that having an option to fall through the factors (like PAM)  
would do it. As far as I can tell, the current behavior is to match  
usernames that match certain regexes to specific password mechanisms,  
and that usernames are only tried against their matching password  
mechanism. I guess I'm asking for a switch that would try a username  
against all password mechanisms until it found one that match,  
returning a failure if none did.
