New submission from Forest <list8a.for...@tibit.com>: I want to add meta-data to an authenticated user's environment, but I don't want to perform extra database operations to do it. Since the repoze.who spec only allows meta-data scribbling from within IMetadataProvider, and IMetadataProvider is separate from IAuthenticator, any meta-data that my authenticator already has must be thrown away, and then fetched again in a meta-data provider. This translates into an additional database fetch which could be avoided if the two interfaces were somehow integrated, or if IAuthenticator was allowed to provide meta-data.
