I just came across L<Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication/COMPATIBILITY
ROUTINES> a couple of minutes ago.
I can use the old store package, but have to use the old auth methods,
and I lose the new realms feature.

Rather than use the legacy features on a new app, I'm just going to
write a new Htpasswd store that uses the new auth API.

Thanks,
