Then the Store would get the singleton long enough to get the info it needs by doing a get with the TxID it has.

I still do not see the real need for the external repository to identify a user with every request. Let's have a look at an RDBMS as used in the J2EEStore. Upon connect there is a single authentication for *all users*. No need for later authentication. I guess that's the way authentication is done in most application server environments: Do not use RDBMS authentication, but use a single user and do the rest yourself. Doesn't this work for you? If not, adding user information to store requests would really be a *HUGE* impact and nothing you can you adhoc IMHO.

What about a callback that we could use from the Store to request the Principal related to a Transaction? Don't we have the TxId on just about all the methods and with that wouldn't we be able to get the Transaction and the Principal with that?
I know that any external repository is going to need to authenticate, so I think this is going to be a needed capability, the Stores will need to know who is asking. Is their someplace where adding a getPrincipal could be easily added and inherited by the Stores? I for one REALLY need this info.

One of the features of Slide on the web site since 1.0.16 is the following, " It can integrate and manage data stored within external repositories, requiring only small abstraction layers to be written for each repository." If I want to use Livelink, Lotus Notes, Documentum, FileNet, PcDocs, SAP, and the list goes on as an "external repository" THAT repository will undoubtedly want to know "who stores content". Are not the Stores this "abstraction layer" the web site still refers to?
Hmmmm. I am certainly not a security expert, but I understand the SecurityStore together with Security (package org.apache.slide.security) is in charge of identifying users and rights. Haven't I heard somebody talk about a LDAP implementation of SecurityStore? Can not find it any more...
