Hi All,

  I'm currently working on an authentication backend that adds some
functionality to the standard one, and as part of this I want to modify
the behaviour of the User class.  I've been subclassing auth.models.User
using standard model inheritance and it seems to be working fine.

  However, I don't need to add any fields to the User class, just
add/modify some methods.  It seems like a waste to have an additional
database table created for my model subclass when it won't contain any
useful information.  I briefly toyed with the idea of just
monkey-patching the User class, but figured there must be a better
way :-)

  So, is there a way to have a model subclass avoid the creation of a
new database table,and just take its data straight out of the table for
its superclass?  


  Thanks,

     Ryan
