That sounds like a valid concern.

I'm trying to make things more clear lately, and hopefully that
wouldn't be a problem when the development versions of repoze.who and
repoze.what come out. For (potential) users of repoze.who 1.0 and
repoze.what 1.0, this might be a good starting point:

You may also consider sending some patches for that plugin. I've
changed my mind and, although I won't develop it actively anymore, I'm
accepting patches now. For example, one of the things you needed back
then is available in v1.1a1 (the username alone instead of the full
DN):

Cheers,
