Those aren't necessarily the *same* piece of information. In particular, it is entirely possible that a user might want a different form of his name and/or a different email address in his attribution cookie than he used in his authentication for initially joining or signing in. I've seen cases of this. -- <a href="http://www.catb.org/~esr/">Eric S. Raymond</a>
