yes, u are absolutly right. tested it like this and it worked.

__PACKAGE__->add_columns(
     'user_password' => {
         encode_check_method => __PACKAGE__->check_password,
         ...


sub check_password {
     my ($self, $pw);
        ...
}


but ... I decided to go for the new extended class because I still need 
progressive Auth, means, some users are only in the DB (including their 
password) and some are only in the LDAP-Dir.
So, if I go for the example above a normal PasswordCheck against the DB 
wouldn't be possible anymore, right?
