I don't think it said much..

It would use mail-storage API so if Dovecot internally supports quota 
then LDA would too.

I would rather not create my own fully featured LDA. Making someone 
else's LDA just use Dovecot's mail_save() and dovecot-auth would be 
better. Doing the actual mail saving should be simple, but I'm not 
exactly sure how the initialization would work. It would need to figure 
out where and how mails are stored (dovecot-auth's master socket would 
tell), and also read namespace settings from dovecot.conf.
