Hi, I'd like you to take a look at this patch for potential
SecurityImpact.

    Kerberos as method name
    
    To date kerberos has been supported by the "external" method
    name.  However, the Client plugin architecture needs to refer to the
    method name, and we do not want to expose to the client the
    difference between kerberos as performed by an external module or
    an eventual kerberos-in-eventlet style implementation.
    
    If the "external" plugin is missing, the old code would throw an
    exception attempting to process "REMOTE_USER" behavior.  Now, if only
    'kerberos' is specified, this is checked and skipped.
    
    Blueprint: kerberos-authentication
    SecurityImpact:  Minimal, as Kerberos is already used via external,
                     this  just changes the main way it is named.
