Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-703:
----------------------------------------
Hi Maciej,
Let me make sure I understand this proposal. You are suggesting still that the
username mapping be the responsibility of individual authorities, yes? But you
want a general feature making username mapping be available to all authorities?
> add username mappers functionality

> If we deal with many auth sources there will be for sure need to map provided
> username to user id specific for particular auth source. As I remember - in
> book there is a note that this is the auth connector responsibility, but it
> means that in different scenarios we need different connectors (for example:
> in one scenario provided username is e-mail, in other - just login. You
> cannot use same auth connector in both cases).
> we should be able to configure "username mapper" for auth connector which may
> be simple regexp mapper or custom class providing mapping interface with more
> complex logic.
