             Summary: User Manager: Expose user's path as property
                 Key: SLING-6753
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-6753
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: JCR
            Reporter: Konrad Windszus
            Assignee: Konrad Windszus
             Fix For: JCR Jackrabbit User Manager 2.2.6


With the support of nested user properties (SLING-6747) the resource provider will still only expose direct user properties through its {{ValueMap}}. This is a limitation of the Jackrabbit Security API and its `getPropertyNames()` method (https://jackrabbit.apache.org/api/2.8/org/apache/jackrabbit/api/security/user/Authorizable.html#getPropertyNames()). To make it possible to read nested user properties through some other means, it would be helpful to retrieve the underlying user path through the `AuthorizableValueMap`, to then be able to access the nested properties via regular means (i.e. Sling Resource API or JCR API).

This is especially important since in Oak the user path is no longer predictable (http://jackrabbit.apache.org/oak/docs/security/user/authorizablenodename.html).
