auth and authz split? haven't they always been split (i.e. check_user_id
and auth_checker)?
maybe i missed a thread somewhere....
but either way - no check_user_id hooker should really be messing with
Require statements too much, no?
the way i see it a simple function (hooked in the auth_checker phase)
which looks for a 'Require valid-user' and returns OK if it finds one
would solve this problem....... (in 1.3 or 2.0).
