[TYPO3-dev] Auth service, authentication against external db and session

I have questions regarding auth service, validating a user against an 
external db and session.

1) When a user tries to login the service takes care to authenticate him 
against an external db.
If username and password is ok
2) a session will be created.
3) Now TYPO3 internal authentication process tries to reread the user 
information (class.t3lib_userauth.php->start, i.e. $this->fetchUserSession)

Function fetchUserSession always queries the fe_sessions against 
fe_users, i.e. if service is NOT creating any fe_user record, the 
authentication will fail, as there will not be any result from the query.

So any hints welcome, if there is a way to work without any fe_user record?

Regs. Peter.
