Is it possible to integrate IPB and wordpress together and use the same userbase?

I need it so that users can only register using my wordpress theme. I do not want to use IPB's registration system.

I also need it so that if a user is logged into my wordpress theme, he/she is automatically logged into IPB too.

Please let me know if this is possible.

If it isn't possible, are there any plans in the future for this feature?  I truly believe that forums need to be better integrated with wordpress.  No body really starts a website with just a forum anymore and trying to integrate a forum into wordpress is a hassle.

What you're looking for is IP.Converge. They have a wordpress module. That's the easiest option. If you're familiar with PHP and OOP procedures then yes IPBWI has a bridge for sale that's 41,65 Eur whereas IP.Converge is free to Active Customers.

That IP.Converge module hasn't been updated or upgraded in a very long time.

Ipbwi.com seems to be the only way to go at the moment.
