Things like 'password verification' and 'user database' are abstracted. By default we provide password salt generation and hashing using unix crypt or OpenSSL (or later perhaps bcrypt), and use a simple Wt::Dbo based implementation for the user database. I also would like to add OAuth in the first version just as a sanity check to see if the API can handle this totally different way of authentication. An alternative implementation for these two components would be to use PAM, or LDAP, but these haven't been planned for a first release. But for example for LDAP we already had some discussions.
