I like the potential flexibility but am not sure what the purpose
would be for having a separate auth db? What if you then had multiple
auth dbs? Wouldn't you need to decorate controllers with the name of
the auth db to search in? Wouldn't there be a performance penalty for
opening up links to multiple dbs?
