Hi! That was me talking about the LDAP store. We had a discussion about the user storage etc in slide... I think we settled on that I had to read up on JAAS and then we'd continue or something like that.
This kind of question clearly ties into that discussion though. Clearly the principal should be available to the stores, as some people might need authentication when writing to a DB, etc, I think that was Mike's point, right? I guess it is usual for Servers to have a 'Context' encapsulating things like the principal, etc... I think the SlideToken represents some of these ideas, it just isn't visible everywhere is the problem. I also think making these changes to all parts of slide is something that should wait for a 2.1 release, perhaps along with a better user storage concept...
