Dear Dev-Team,

if the format of my request/patch does not comply, please be patient  
with someone new to it. I will be happy to correct any mistakes  
pointed out.

This is a stacking auth module (cf. Horde_Auth_Composite), which  
allows to use two authentication modules. The main usecase is to  
either validate the pwd against two different backends, or to validate  
against at least one backend. (patch attached)

This is to facilitate the integration of a one-time-password scheme  
under development. The user would choose which password to enter  
(permanent vs. otp) and it could be processed.

An example configuration usecase would look like this:
$conf['auth']['driver'] = 'composite';
$conf['auth']['params']['admin_driver']['driver'] = 'sql';
$conf['auth']['params']['auth_driver']['driver'] = 'dual';
$conf['auth']['params']['auth_driver']['params']['single_validation'] = true;
$conf['auth']['params']['auth_driver']['params']['auth1_driver']['driver'] =  
'sql';
$conf['auth']['params']['auth_driver']['params']['auth2_driver']['driver'] =  
'one-time-password-mechanism'

Any feedback on implementations and/or enhancements very appreciated.

Best regards,
Carl

PS: Priority is medium, as I would like to build other features on top  
of this one. Please correct it, if it is too high.
