I _think_ that's already there?  If you're using the GSSAPI you already
have support for named attribute retrieval, as detailed here:

	https://web.mit.edu/kerberos/krb5-devel/doc/appdev/gssapi.html

I know there is already extensive PAC decoding and validation in later
MIT Kerberos versions.  But I would caution you that like Simo mentioned
I think all you get is SIDs in the PAC and you have to do some more work
to turn that into something useful.
