I'm really asking this by proxy, another team at work has had a change request from our customer.

What's the best way to extend the User model (bundled with Django's authentication app) with custom fields? I would also possibly like to use the email as the username (for authentication purposes). I've already seen a few ways to do it, but can't decide on which one is the best. ...
