+1 from me.

One minorish nit: I think that "in the face of ambiguity, refuse the
temptation to guess" should apply equally to reading or writing
user.data, and that there shouldn't be an awkward discrepancy between
reading and writing. Thus, if you've got multiple profiles with
overlapping attributes (the less-common case), you need to be explicit
with AUTH_PROFILES in order to either read or write the overlapping keys
via user.data (but writing is then allowed). In the common case of no
overlapping keys, of course, you don't have to worry about AUTH_PROFILES.
