Can you do some small discurs about ssh+kerberos?
I am try to use FreeBSD with $HOME over kerberoized NFS.
For kerberoized NFS gssd need to find cache file "called
/tmp/krb5cc_<uid>, where <uid> is the effective uid for the RPC
caller" (from `man gssd`).

sshd contrary create cache file for received ticket called
/tmp/krb5cc_XXXXXXX (random string, created by krb5_cc_new_unique). Is
this strong security  requirement or [FreeBSD/upstream] can be patched
(or introduce option) to use /tmp/krb5cc_<uid> as cache file for
received ticket?
