Only password and token authentications are natively supported (by default) at the moment. There are also signature-based authentication APIs like ec2 and s3 available as extensions. Other mechanisms such as two-way SSL and external authentication via a web frontend is also possible?
In v3, we should like to introduce authn plugin capability as well. Do you want to share your use case so we can discuss possible solutions?

However, looking at the sourcecode and blueprints I can't seem to find this feature. I see a lot of encryption-based in tokens, but not between the end-user and keystone. Are there any plans in that direction, or should I be rolling my own solution?
