Aha. Cool. :)

I expect sssd can be backported, but the pam-auth-config stuff will
have to be rewritten for /etc/pam.d/ to get the required
configuration.
As for deletion of access rights, I have no idea how it is handled. I
hope it is handled well, but do not really know.
Those that want to test the roaming setup in Debian Edu can install
from the squeeze-test images. Since yesterday, roaming workstation is
a profile option during installation, and it seem to be working.
BTW: not sure if you are subscribed to debian-edu@, so I kept you on
CC.
Happy hacking,
