If you initialize your krb5 ticket cache, you won't be
prompted, but based on you next comments this doesn't matter.

I thought that might be the case.  Extending winbindd for this
is probably not the correct approach IMO.  We just need to provide
a library for the functions we use internally in smbd.
It's something that we are planning for the future, but will take
some time to get there.
