We (Project Athena and the X Consortium) currently have plans to include support
for Kerberos version 5 in X11R5.  The precise interface (e.g. whether or not
we can get away with no protocol extension) is still being worked on.  Certainly
we'd like to take a look at what you've done, although we don't want to be
bound by it.  I think there will be interest in Kerberos support; what problems
might arise from our using a different implementation downstream, I don't know.
