Try specifying functions as a dict of lists keyed by controller names, and
include and entry for user. Something like
app = dict(
...
functions = dict(
default = [ list of functions],
user = [ list of functions ],
).
...
One other thing to pay attention to is that by default there's a function
app/default/user that manages your auth object. The router will do the right
thing, but there may be some omissions that it won't be able to do because the
conflict creates an ambiguity. In particular, the router can normally shorten
/app/default/user/whatever to /user/whatever, but it can't do that if you have
a function named user.
You can work around that by renaming your controller, or by renaming the
auth-support function and telling Auth: auth = Auth(...
function='somethingotherthanuser'...)
