One would have to change mgd_auth_midgard. I did some prelim work but
didn't engineer it out. Don't know where it is now but the basics
weren't too hard. But since many functions expect user data to be in the
database, you'll need to keep the data synchronized (except the
password, which is only needed in the main authentication database, be
it LDAP or otherwise).
