First of all, _never_ use $__auth. That's what Auth::getAuth() is for.

For the rest, if there are pieces that _have_ to have IMP-specific info, then
there should be an Identity_IMP class which handles them. I'll look at this later.

People begged for it forever now not caring about the security implications. I
haven't had time to encrypt it. If you do, go for it.
