I think Mike Smith did an initial hack, as you call it, but then was
swamped with millions of other tasks :-). Last time I asked (2 weeks ago?)
it seemed that it's left rotting in the corner.
I for one could do something with it (or with something similar), because
I all the time have to hack login and ftp to support SecurID tokens, and
besides I'm going to try to hack a radius-ified login. But all of this is
pretty hackish under current authentication scheme - there is no clean
solution, and the same things are scattered in multiple places... :-/
If you think there is some auth scheme/package that would be worth
implementing, I might take a look at it.
