+In an environment where several web applications authenticate against the same
+source, the simplest way to attain single sign on would be to have the
+webserver handle authentication and pass the login information via HTTP headers
+to the application it proxies.
+
+This addon allows for this setup. Technically, it picks up the HTTP
+Authorization header, extract a username and a password from that and tries to
+login into the first database found in the database list.
