Hi Christian,

The current implementation will only allow you to know details about the 
*current* external user (i.e the logged in user). I wrote a very hack-y 
workaround which you'll find on google with "ClutchLDAPUserManager".

Now, to get the fullname of a user with the current API, you'd do 
user.getProperty("title"); getProperty() isn't supported by 
ExternalUserManager, afaics, but that should be an easy fix. I'm not sure why 
the name of the property is "title", but I think that derives from the legacy 
of the user nodes stored in the repo, where title was used a generic property, 
to set the full name in the case of users.
