You can just specify this when creating the query for the dovecot mysql 
interface, it has a predefined pattern (%n) for username part of 
username at domain, which you can use in the query.

Debian dovecot package includes a dovecot-mysql.conf that explains this in 
sufficient detail for most purposes.

Strangely enough I've just been doing the exact opposite with Postfix and 
Postfix virtual users...

Can anything be done "easily" in PAM? ;)

Probably - I'd have no idea where to start.
