OK.
Another question: I made my own authentication extension to be able to
deal with an external database. Now after reading the code, what I fear
is true, my extension won't be able to provide openID as well. You did
what I wanted to do with this openid extension. Now, I know that this
extension is not yet released but it would be great to let other
authentication extensions "hook" as fallback authentication method if
OpenID is not used. This way one could let OpenID work and use its own
authentication method as well.
For this, the hook should also provide data of the OpenID session to
confirm the authentication. What do you think?
