I have provided my own AuthenticationDao implementation for my users and

subclass off of User instead of having to create a new User object from them
for all the apis.  The problem is that the members of User are all private.
Can these be changed to protected or is there some special reason for them
to be private?

Hi Randy

I just took a look at User and am wondering what you couldn't achieve by calling super(). Each of the properties have a getter, and the constructor performs the setting. Is there a particular use case you can't accomplish? I don't mind making them protected if needed, but I do wonder if doing so would reduce the integrity of User, as the constructor performs checks for non-null values etc.

Best regards
Ben
