[rt-users] WebExternalAuth user lookup hooks?

Okay, I am like 0.00001mm away from the Holy Grail: single-sign-on RT
in a Windows Active Directory environment using Samba and Apache/*nix.

Only one small stumbling block remains:

I'm using the UiO LDAP synch code (http://www.usit.uio.no/it/rt/modifications.html)
to have usernames looked up in the ADS LDAP tree.  This works fine
when a user is auto-created via incoming email, but doesn't cover the
case of a user being auto-created by logging in to the self-service
web interface via WebExternalAuth.

Obviously I just need to modify RT so that it looks up the username
it's getting from the webserver in the LDAP directory and correctly
populates the RealName and Email fields, so um... where would I do
that, precisely?
