[imp] adding realm in IMP5

Is there a recommended way to replicate/replace the old "realm" parameter
in IMP5? I have 2 issues I am trying to solve:
1. I have 8 different IMAP servers. 2 of them are different IMAP servers,
but I want to share user preferences between them (we are migrating slowly
over time from an old IMAP server to a new IMAP server)
2. Username is not unique between all 8 IMAP servers, so in the
preferences backend (MySQL) I need to have a realm/domain appended to the
username. For example, pref_uid should contain "morgan at orst.edu" instead
of "morgan".
In IMP4, I used the realm parameter to accomplish both goals. I have been
reading the backends.php and hooks.php files, but I don't see how to get a
realm/domain appended to the pref_uid.
Thanks,
Andy
