[geeklog-users] http authentication

I'm getting a bunch of requests to give my app a better web API, i.e. 
to expose some of the functions for external apps to use.  This is 
doable except that the user authentication isn't based on 
challenge/response, so most web client tools can't set the user and 
password.

(...Of course, the way geeklog does authentication is the right way, 
I'm not complaining about that.)

My question: is there any way to hook the geeklog authentication 
together with HTTP basic authentication?

Thanks in advance.
