I'm an old school Perl programmer from way back and thinking about
getting back into the web_dev game. So I've been reading up on app
engine and have decided to go with Java because I know even less about
Python than I do Java.

But my question is this, how would one go about implementing a user
system on top of the app engine user system?

Say for instance you wanted to use google's login/out system with
google accounts and the session objects already established in
UserServiceFactory but also wanted the user id to reference extra data
unique to your system while minimizing db queries and processing.
Unfortunately it is not possible to extend
com.google.appengine.api.users (cannot subclass a final class).

Has anyone come up with a clever way of doing this that they want to
share?
