Yeah, I'd really like to have LDAP authentication. We don't yet have a 
ticket open for it; do you want to open one?

I'd like to build a class hierarchy for auth engines, something like:

    AuthenticationStore
          LDAPAuthenticationStore
          DrupalAuthenticationStore
          MediaWikiAuthenticationStore
          ...

I think that authentication store is orthogonal to authentication 
credentials; the same kind of credentials (username & password, OpenID, 
biometrics (!)) could work in different back-end stores.

I think someone in #laconica asked to get started on this, but I don't 
know where it's gone.
