Pretty sure I sent this reply already, but I don't see it in my sent
folder...

I'm OK with this, though there is some dead code and I'd like to rename
a field. If you're OK with this, I can do at merge time.

Can we use 'user_url' instead of 'user'? It's a URL, rather than a
nested user object, so this makes more sense semantically speaking,
IMO.

This method no longer does anything and can be removed. In fact, it
shouldn't be added in the previous revision, I guess?
