Obviously replacing an authentication protocol is a big change that affects many things, but some smaller improvements could make the user interface suck less. Asking for a password instead of just failing is an isolated client-side change. It would take some programming work of course, but little or no coordination between different components. Authenticating in advance with kinit would continue to work, so nobody's workflow would break. Björn Persson
