CLIENT-CERT and custom username?

hello everyone,

looked for this all over but couldn't find an answer...

So I would like to ask a question about the auth-method CLIENT-CERT. It
seems that the username resulting from an authentication is the CN
component of the subject's DN (as it appears in the client
certificate). Is there any way to using a custom function that returns a
username based on the DN? Or is it possible to use a custom function to
return a principal that is different from the username?

many thanks for any help
