I certainly think it would be nice to have as an option. However,
honestly, I can't think of many advantages. If PPP could be installed
by the user without any sysadmin intervention or cooperation, such as
in a situation where one is just an individual user on a large system
with sysadmins "who can't be bothered", then this would be a really
useful option. However, to use PPP for login the system PAM stacks
need to be modified.
Use case: "I'm a sysadmin at a small company. I have an natural adversion to anything centralized, and I don't want to have social responsibility if anything goes wrong. I don't need any more complexity in my system than absolutely necessary."
Maybe it's a slim one, so feel free to ignore it.
Well, Tomasz is the only dev, currently. I'm just the peanut gallery. ;-)
