I agree with what John said, but there is support for this.

If you can't use role based access control
(Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::Roles) then you can use the
non-easy interface into the authentication stores:

Initialize your own Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::DBIC::Backend
(read the source code to see how this is done - each store may
require a different initialization sequence), register it, and then
create another, and register it by another name:

	register_autho_stores(
		basic => $backend,
		advanced => $backend,
	);

Note that at this stage there is no store by the name of 'default' -
this means you have to use user objects. Instead of

	$c->login( "user", "password" ); # two string

You need to say

	my $user = $c->get_auth_store("basic")->get_user($username);
	$c->login( $user, $password );

and all the session integration will continue to work normally from
here, mapping to the right store.

You might want to put a multiplexing store in 'default', one that
will first try one store and then the other.
