RE: checking for bound user

["David Parker" <david.parker@rocketsoftware.com>]

Actually, our design has changed a bit since I first posted the question. We have a variety of components we want to implement as overlays, and we want to be able to mix and match them depending on the requirements of a given site.

So I think I really need to be able to check for the c_authz_backend by name, rather than comparing the pointer to my current, because I want to have a single overlay that does bind logic, with other overlays that support their peculiar features just checking to see if their master bind overlay performed the bind of the requesting user or not. 

The whole overlay technology is extremely cool, and being able to specify multiple overlays on a given backend provides a lot of flexibility.
