db.users.drop() causes trouble

[ile]

db.users.drop() seems to cause problems - the code (derby-auth) assumes that everything is ok when the sess.userId is set, but actually the database can be empty, which isn't noticed that that point (https://github.com/lefnire/derby-auth/blob/master/index.js#L64), and it will lead to problems afterwards.

The client has to have a cookie set in order the sess.userId to be set (of course).

Hit me up with a PR if you can think of a work around, or any suggestions
on handling configurable collection name?

Not sure, but should it just do a model.fetch around that point (line 64)? Of course an extra model.fetch feels bad though...

In the app code there will probably be this: model.set '_user', user

... would it be wise to do that at the derby-auth level already?

Just some ideas, I really don't know what's best here..

Here's one way to do it (maybe): ile@5207118

(A bit too much code got in. I'm also making hooks for users_public collection because I think that's what I need... By querying users_public I get a hash array and not a normal array like with motifs .... so maybe a PR isn't a good idea with this commit)

You can decide what to do with this, copy & paste or improve or anything.
