I can partially agree with you but why every different application must be authentificated by their own database?
It's all about common authentification data schema.If it's relational or some other kind-dosen't matter.
One big problem with directory services that it dosen't support native xml interfaces(though implies hierarchical structure), I'm not talking about DSML-it's simply transport protocol.
In present time Yukon with help of XML schemas+XQuery(WinFS Contacts anyone? ;-) is much more powerful/flexible/easy to use/standard than any directory service(Oracle with XML DB think about it also).

It was several posts(on weblogs.asp.net) about why UDDI at all and that it was born dead from begining.
It seems same situation here, in big "solid" corporations directories have their place but small "distributed" world prefer something more simple/flexible(WS-Adressing/discovery etc.),and this approach wins as practice reveals(remember SGML to XML transition?)

Thanks,nice article.
