 * Is it possible to re purpose this plugin to instead of connecting to a database
   directly; just passing a html string with the login and password to a web service
   for authentication.
 * Today we have a web service that will accept the login and password and is able
   to respond with a value of Y or N.
 * If Y I would like to be able to proceed with logging the user into the WordPress
   site, and if N just echo back an error on the login page.
 * Thanks,
    JL
