Comment (by mjtamlyn):

 Russell's approach might be nice if there are other third party apps who
 wish to push utilities into the API. I could imagine a situation where
 something like contrib.admin or an API framework or CMS system could have
 utility assertions for common patterns of testing your configuration of
 them, which might feel appropriate to be client methods.

 The issue with Carl's suggestion is that if auth provides a subclass and
 any other third party API provides a subclass merging them quickly gets
 boring, although it is the more explicit approach and it would remove the
 dependency more cleanly.
