Feature #542: Support other SMS sending tools

Priority: Normal

Category: Self Service Password
Target version: self-service-password-?


I note that SSP 0.8 introduces the possibility to send a confirmation code by 
SMS, enabling 2 factor-authentication for password changes (see #354). This is 
very nice.

However, the feature currently only supports sending via a SMTP-to-SMS system, 
in other words sending an email. It would be great to implement an 
archictecture that allows to enable using SMS, and then choose a "provider" for 
actually sending the SMS: either the existing SMTP-to-SMS provider, or other, 
specific providers.

My particular use case is to support the OVH provider, who offer an API that is 
easily accessible from PHP (see 
http://www.ovh.com/soapi/fr/?method=telephonySmsSend for a PHP code generator). 
The parameters for this are basically account ID, password, sending number. But 
in some cases you may have to provide an extra username (ie, the account at OVH 
has several users). My point here is that each provider may have different 
settings required.

This ticket could lead to the implementation of that provider, of course, but I 
think it is important to first consider the architecture around this - how can 
we support several providers, what config parameters would be used, etc? And 
ideas?
