Does not work with guest login

[garemoko]

Needs to fail gracefully.

Guests should be allowed to enter a name and email address and then proceed.

Hi,
Just started using the tincan launcher and ran into this issue. I'm going to hack a solution but would appreciate if this feature was built in. If I code something usable, I'll post it here.

Thanks! The solutions I had in mind would be that either:

1. Detect guest and use an anonymous actor.
2. Detect guest and present an additional screen asking for their name and email.

Hi,
Added functionality for guests.

• view.php
  -- Put some PHP code in functions for readability.
  -- If guest, display field to collect guest email and launch new instance
  -- Else run user code
• launch.php
  -- Added guest_id guest_email to $USER (avoided overwriting moodle $USER values)
• lib.php
  -- tincanlaunch_getactor, Set values for Agent object
  -- if guest: set alt email, set name to random id (UUID), account set to default for CFG and user
  -- else try and get regular user

Setting the actor name as a uuid seemed ideal, as it would limit fetching someone else's data.
