The genesis of this is that my application uses http://passportjs.org for authentication, meaning my user's session does not live at
req.session.user
.Rather than make a specific fallback for Passport, I introduced a handler which allows the developer to supply where on the request object the user data lives (in Passport's case,
req.user
).
