We didn't have that usecase: the userid_checker is intended to use the a notional backing store to see if the user exists *at all*, via something like 'select * from users where id = %s' % userid. At this point, we probably can't make a backwards-compatible change to this which doesn't cause a performance hit on every authenticated request. If you really need that feature, I would advise subclassing the plugin and overring the 'authenticate' method to pass in the 'environ' to your checker. If you mean to configure your custom plugin through an INI file, you will also need to clone the 'make_plugin' function to get a version which creates an instance of your subclass.
