+/* The idea here is to be able to run mate-screensaver-dialog without any setuid bits.
+ * Password verification happens through an external program that you feed
+ * your password to on stdin. The external command is invoked with a user
+ * name argument.
+ *
+ * The external helper does whatever authentication is necessary. Currently,
+ * SuSE uses "unix2_chkpwd", which is a variation of "unix_chkpwd" from the
+ * PAM distribution.
+ *
+ * Normally, the password helper should just authenticate the calling user
+ * (i.e. based on the caller's real uid). This is in order to prevent
+ * brute-forcing passwords in a shadow environment. A less restrictive
+ * approach would be to allow verifying other passwords as well, but always
+ * with a 2 second delay or so. (Not sure what SuSE's "unix2_chkpwd"
+ * currently does.)
