I think this sounds great. If it is possible, please design this in a
modular way internally so that it is will be easy to write a LDAP
backend eventually. Some people may want to put the SRP verifiers in a
LDAP directory. I suspect it won't be hard to do this -- just try to
separate the calls to the data storage from the parts that use that data
as cleanly and minimal as possible.
