Yah, as a general purpose solution, I'm all for this. It requires much
deeper work than that which this thread started with...

We need separate auth caches.
We need auth cache association by acl during the request process.
We need the auth modules to remove all their current static data.

In other words - this is on my long term 'do sometime' list. I'm more
than happy to do it as a commercial contract if someone needs it done
before 'sometime' :}.

Cheers,
Rob
