From general principle, 1) is the one you want. I haven't set up user auth
myself, but in document-oriented databases you want to keep your data together
in logical units that have a practical maximum size.
So while, in a way, all your logins are a logical unit, there is no limit on
how large that array will get so that is not a good way to store that
information.
Wout.
