As Richard already replied that would add a huge overhead to Net_Cyrus that's not necessary as it is intended to only be an administration class for Cyrus, not a full featured IMAP protocol replacement. > Cyrus Administration Tool (cyradm) is based on RFC2087 (imap quota) > and RFC2086 (imap acl) (both implemented by Cyrus IMAP server) but only > uses a subset of its power.

It does this by using Auth_SASL that is used in Net_Cyrus too. So there's no gain here.
