Hard to say exactly, but looks that it will be quite soon as it is
requirement from more people and potential customers . Hopefully in
terms of weeks/months, but hard to promise exact date... I think it
would require enhance our existing password policies, but those would be
a bit harder to add than current simple policies as it will also require
to store some info in database (like password expiration time and older
passwords)

You mean login to KC when user is already logged in windows domain? Yes,
we have plan for add Kerberos/spnego soon and I think that it should
solve windows domain authentication too. Hopefully around January.
