Then, to do what Lauren wants requires SASL/EXTERNAL. While related, it
is a much different question. This same mechanism would be how one
would support LDAP and other authentication mechanisms.
I don't know how complete the SASL implementation used by Rabbit is, or
what that implementation is.
Pardon me for, uh, not reading the original post ;-)
