I am interested in this problem. I've had it in my mind
for as long time, and I always postponed the solution to the moment I'll
need it, but it woulf be really nice to start developing some ideas of
that for the future PHPlib 8

Can we discuss something on remote authentication? I'd like to hear some
'real life' needs and cases.

I found a couple of articles that show that the problem is alive:
