// This class encapsulates authenticated user information. 
// To obtain an instance of this object, you may use `getContext` method
// defined on the Model/Service class or instance:
//
//     MySchema.methods.updateStatus = function(){
//          var user = this.getContext().getPrincipal();
//          console.log("User is ", user.getUsername());     
//     }
//
//
