Indeed. When stage 1 of NWI-8 is implemented, I was planning to propose
an NWI to allow for creating API keys for database maintenance at
https://lirportal.ripe.net/api/ (i.e., for use with Syncupdates and
the RESTful API).

One could then use that API key to authenticate against the LIR's
default authentication group.
