I've been using the 2.0.x packages for quite a while and it works well
for me. That requires sid, though.

Yes. You need to have the sasl library installed (libsasl7). This is
covered by the postfix-tls dependencies. You _also_ need a
libsasl-*-modules package installed (see the libsasl7 Recommends: for
specific names).

I used to have the following in /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf :
    pwcheck_method: PAM
    mech_list: plain
(I say "used to" because now I use postfix 2 with sasl 2 and sasl 2
doesn't directly support pam anymore)

Then in /etc/pam.d/smtp put the following :
    auth required pam_unix.so
    account required pam_permit.so

For society, it's probably a good thing that engineers value function
over appearance. For example, you wouldn't want engineers to build
nuclear power plants that only _look_ like they would keep all the
radiation inside.
