I am using my own bean that I stored in the session. See the Wiki page I just added about authentication.
I never felt comfortable with the way the authentication and session frameworks store values in the session. E.g. I had to write some input and output modules that retreive these "/authentication/data/title" things and store them in ordinary session attributes so my Cocoon database actions could use them. May be I am too stupid to understand the "XML" approach, but in most cases I always tend to select the Java solution. I know I should avoid relying on a particular language instead of relying on XML. But sometimes (in most cases :-( ) there are some deadlines making me a bit nervous.
