Custom forms authentication in a lightswitch application

Question

We have an existing data source which already includes tables for users (employees) and roles.

Is there a way to use these tables instead of the users and roles tables created by lightswitch when you select forms authentication?

BTW, the LightSwitch team is active on the Microsoft forums right now. You'll probably have a better bet using that forum for questions until the community builds up more. It's a new product so the team is trying to focus on discussions there right now.

Thanks for evaluating LightSwitch!
