Its a fallback plan if Picketlink IDM's performance/scalability isn't up

IMO the code in services is already a bit crowded, and with the addition of a MongoDB implementation it will only get worse. If we add a SPI for these it would be easier in the future to add more. It would also be possible for users to write their own if they really need to.
