Does the enterprise you are hosting these for have an SSO source like Active Directory?
Cindy Cicalese has just finished updating PluggableAuth for MW 1.27. I think it would prove very helpful to you.
You don't say what you're using the API requests for, but that seems trivial. Are you running into problems there?
For one of my clients, I have written PluggableSSO (which uses Cindy's PluggableAuth) to take care of authentication based on HTTP headers that Apache provides using mod_auth_kerb. I have and AD user that queries AD via LDAP for user information then.
Another client of mine uses a CA-provided module for Apache that takes care of SAML authentication and then sends me headers for the user. I'm thinking of replacing that apache module with Cindy's SimpleSAMLphp extension that uses PluggableAuth.
Hope this helps!
Mark.
