      This extension point can be used to register new
      multi-directories. The extension can contain any number of
      directories declarations of the form:

      <code>
        ...
        <directory name="userDirectory">
          <schema>user</schema>
          <idField>username</idField>
          <passwordField>password</passwordField>

          <querySizeLimit>1000</querySizeLimit>

          <source name="ldapusers">
            <subDirectory name="authinfo">
              <field for="email">mail</field>
            </subDirectory>
            <subDirectory name="userinfo">
              <field for="firstName">givenName</field>
              <field for="lastName">sn</field>
              <field for="company">o</field>
            </subDirectory>
          </source>

          <source name="sqlusers" creation="true">
            <subDirectory name="sqlUserDirectory"/>
          </source>

        </directory>
        ...
      </code>

      Here is the description for each field:
      <ul>
        <li>
          schema - the name of the schema to be used for the directory
          entries.
        </li>
        <li>
          idField - the id field designs the primary key in the table,
          used for retrieving entries by id.
        </li>
        <li>
          querySizeLimit - the maximum number of results that the
          queries on this directory should return; if there are more
          results than this, an exception will be raised.
        </li>
      </ul>
      The references tag is used to define relations between
      directories. (TODO: describe the references types.)
