Yeah, it's a serious/ugly limitation but strictly speaking not a bug because 
it's been created to be a repoze.who-based authorization framework.

In the next major release of repoze.what (already under development), it will 
be fully repoze.who-independent and thus it will provide its own middleware. 
This will be the only backward incompatible change (since the setup_auth() 
function will be replaced), but fortunately this won't affect projects that 
use the quickstart plugin (nearly all TG2 projects, I think).

Cheers!
