Sorry for that.
I mean, use users in /etc/passwd to login.
I never knew this is was an option.
Or you mean something new that was planned somewhere?
I am against of using native authentication for applications, as it enables more
privileges that users should have.
The proper way to do that is to use directory services, such as LDAP and integrate the nss
of system and application to use that directory.
