+* Add valref and scratchref options to UserDB, allowing the admin
+ user to put their stuff in someplace besides $Values. This would
+ allow you to easily set $Values to customer or affiliate settings,

+ If you do:
+
+ UserDB ui valref user_record
+ UserTag uvalue Alias data base=session key=

+
+ The [if-mm] tag probably needs to be adjusted for this to work
+ in the admin in real life.
