I submitted code a few weeks ago to accomplish something very similar. You will still have to write a few simple methods (by implementing a DAO style interface) to retrieve your users from MySQL, but my contribution takes care of mapping your user info to the principal store format that Slide expects. My code also assumes that you are not relying on Slide to authenticate, but have already authenticated the current user before entering Slide. My "principal store" implementation does not expose passwords to Slide, only user information, roles, etc. Take a look at http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33639 for my contribution. I also include code to integrate Acegi authentication (which is what we use) with Slide's WebDAV servlet - and to facilitate some IoC style configuration (in my case, Spring).
