In netuse.lists.php-pear you write:

User is a hack and should have been done away with long ago.

Auth is pretty generic, and can become completely generic with
nearly zero cost (remove all references to uname).

Perm is pretty generic, but should be changed to be able to work
with a dynamic, run-time defineable list of permissions instead
of a statically initialized array.

A user group system is missing completely and needs to be added.
