Aah!  This answers the concern I had... I agree that it's not
unreasonable to expect something like Crytix JCE to be installed on
auth servers.  (In fact when we distribute DotGNU on CDROM, we could,
for convenience of installation, include Crytix JCE ... so it's not a
big deal at that end.)

I'm afraid I still don't understand all of the basics of all this...
maybe you could start with explaining the most basic question:  What
benefits to the end user does this system provide, as opposed to the
good old "username and password over SSL"?

Greetings, Norbert.
