If we want to add custom properties or attributes to a user account in 
MarkLogic (beyond username and description), it seems like we have the 
following options:

1. Put the values in the description field tokenized (Bob | Accounting | 
555-1223 | b...@mail.com)
2. Use a separate XML file in the content database 
3. Add properties to the XML file for the user in the Security DB

#1 is good except there is a limit to the number of characters. #2 adds the 
overhead of making sure the Securty DB and "extended user info" XML files in 
the content DB are always in sync. #3 starts tinkering with the Security DB 
which sounds like something to avoid.

I'm hoping there are other options. What do you all recommend?

thanks,
Ryan
