Mostly lack of resources/priority/motivation/etc I guess; certainly no  
reason why we don't want it done.  But it's an issue that's been  
getting more discussion lately in some of our internal meetings.

Have you followed the KDC information model and schema discussions  
happening related to the IETF Kerberos working group?  The discussions  
were taking place on a couple of external mailing lists, not the main  
working group mailing list:
http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kdc-info
http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kdc-schema
They're pretty quiet now, but you can check through the archives.

Ken
