I think what you should do depends on what your goal is. 'kinit' is just
a tool to obtain a kerberos ticket and put it in a credentials cache,
which may be on disk or in kernel memory or the memory of a helper
service. It's not clear to me what benefit is gained from having this
tool be written in python, unless it is to be some sort of learning
exercise, so I feel that I am misunderstanding the question.
