Any chance the kadmin protocol will ever be standardized?

I would love for it to go away entirely, and those base-system
components that depend on it to learn how to use either Kerberos
implementation from ports.  (I'd also love for the ancient and broken
base version of libcom_err to go away -- there's no knob to turn it
off, and the shared library conflicts with ports/krb5.)

(And yes, this is a bit of an irony considering that I used to be the
maintainer of the base-system Kerberos code in the long-ago krb4
days.  But my job requires me to administer MIT Kerberos, so I need
the MIT kadmin utility and not the Heimdal one.)
