Maybe you should think about why "creative hacks" are not a good idea 
and therefore the experts do not suggest any. Kerberos has a certain 
security model. For security reasons the TGT is not something which 
should be stored everywhere. I also consider the saslauthd hack with 
{SASL}username@MYREALM.EDU to be not acceptable.

Ciao, Michael.
