Now I understand that I have reinvented the wheel :(
SimpleUserFolder was what I should I found BEFORE I developed my
IssueUserFolder for the Issuetrackerproduct.
Just one python question Chris, why do you do this::
class User(BasicUser):
    def __init__(self,dict):
        # bypass immutability
        d = self.__dict__
        d['__'] = dict['password']
        del dict['password']
        d['name'] = dict['name']
        del dict['name']
        d['roles'] = dict['roles']
        del dict['roles']
        d['extra'] = dict

What's wrong just doing 
self.__ = dict['password']
??
