I did some brief further research and what you need is "middleware" [1].  If you go down this path with any success I know that this
developer and probably the wider community would be interested in what you discover, so please report back.

You might also want to look at the Native IIS 7 connector [2].  This is not ready for prime time (coming in SP V3) so only test on a
dev platform, but it might be that having the attributes available as server variables makes your life easier, as might having a
real IPrincipal to work with.  And if you get to be very lucky you might be able to make Roles Based AuthZ work for you.

Good luck !
