Great!  The only concern that came to my mind is a rename risk:  Do you
have some way to determine that if you get a ticket to change the
password on one user, and before the password is changed the user is
renamed, that user is renamed, and a new user created in it's place, you
change the password on the 'right' user?

(The SID in the PAC would be unchanged, but the principal would have
changed).

The trouble is we don't run the Heimdal kadmind, so I think we are stuck
with some of gensec_krb5 for the Heimdal case.

I'll take another look over it.  I was quite pleased with it when I last
looked over that part of the changes.
