---------------------------------------

Hi, 

I wonder, should the system invalidate the access token records if a given 
user's login name changes ? Or at the very least refresh them ?

Adding an explicit 'id' will allow multiple UserSubjects representing the same 
user to exist: I wonder if it is something that our model should support 
directly, I'm not saying the system can not support it out of band (ex, via the 
oldname -> id -> newName association or similar), I'm just wondering what is 
the correct course of action from the OAuth2 implementation framework is...I'll 
ask on the OAuth2 list

> As the user's login name my change over time it might be a good idea to 
> assign a unique, non-changing user id. To reflect this within the auth module 
> the class USerSubject needs an additional field.
> The OAuthContextUtils the may resolve the user's id.
> A patch implementing this improvement is attached.
