RequestUserMiddleware is a horribly ugly name, and in the latest diff
attatched to http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/1428 I've renamed it
to MultiAuthMiddleware. I'm wondering if people think it would be
worthwhile to add something else called AuthMiddleware that would do
more or less what django does now. It would be the default when you
created a new project.

Also, the stuff in django.parts should move to django.contrib.auth and
django.parts should die.

It might also make sense to move some of the machinery (AuthUtil,
maybe others) down a level into a new django.auth package and/or to
put the multiauth stuff in a django.contrib.multiauth package.

Comments?

P.S. Note that I haven't done anything with the login views yet
(except to get logout working... kinda.) The new auth machinery
bypasses the login forms since authentication happens before the login
view is called. The views still probably need to do the cookie checks.
