View Helper
===========

In your AppView, load the Helper as::

   $this->loadHelper('Authentication.Identity');

For very simple checking whether the user is logged in you can use::

   if ($this->Identity->isLoggedIn()) {
       ...
   }

Getting user data can be done with::

   $username = $this->Identity->get('username');

The following check can be used to tell if a record that belongs to some
user is the current logged in user and compare other fields as well::

   $isCurrentUser = $this->Identity->is($user->id);
   $isCurrentRole = $this->Identity->is($user->role_id, 'role_id');

This method is mostly a convenience method for simple cases and not
intended to replace any kind of proper authorization implementation.
