Re: [fw-auth] Zend_Auth and Join

I believe Zend_Auth is only concerned with authenticating a user, which is usually a simple query, but fortunately you can store any type of object you want into _Auth's storage.

What I do in my auth controller is use _Auth to authenticate, and if valid I load up a custom member object and write that into the storage instead of the result row.

<?php

$user = Member::load($id);

$auth->getStorage()->write($user);

$auth->hasIdentity(); // returns true

$auth->getIdentity(); // returns custom $user object

Is there an easy way to get Zend_Auth to do a  join on multiple database
tables using the db table adapter, I assume not as it's not documented.
Basically I need a users role which is stored in a different table.

Should I simply do two queries and compile my own user model or extend the
adapter and carry out my own query?
