This needs further consideration. Important implementation questions:

  • New behavior of the config option?
  • How to handle conflicts, i.e. multiple plugins trying to set the auth backend?
  • Move builtin backends to their own plugins? Probably not as it has the potential to cause a lot of confusion and inconvenience.
  • Expose builtin backends (to make wrapping them possible)? Yes

This makes it possible to build custom, more complex authentication systems for purposes like sharing them with a website or to implement a custom storage method.
