I'm just wary of apps being able to require non-standard interfaces for the user model. (And if apps are not going to require non-standard interfaces, then I don't really understand why profiles are inadequate for extra user data.) However, if this really isn't going to change things for people who are using contrib.auth.models.User, then I suppose I can't object too much.
