<metoo>I think things here depend on how complex the module will be. While I would like to see some basic authentication support in CGI.pm, a fully functional authentication module might be better as a stand alone.</metoo>

Regardless, I am sick of writing authentication systems, and I think a Perl mod is sorely needed. I was even going to do one my self, until I realised how complex it could be. Think about user groups, access levels, and how to restrict the operations of users, groups and levels. Should logging be included... etc. Well, if you can get a 0.0 version to CPAN I'll love to add to it (when I have time, and I happen to be sober of course).
