So I [producer] can't have policies that assign different lifetimes passed
on user category or profile information? Certainly not a common use but
why would we prevent?

I would argue against the lifetime operations
taking a user context as the underlying resources are not user-specific and
the Consumer is the right control point for deciding whether or not the end-user
is allowed to see or impact the lifetime.

Issue #33: Pass UserContext to lifetime operations?
I had considered portlet handle
leasing ops taking in a user context but then the question of whether a consumer
leases on a per user basis would arise. The call arg would then typically
set to null, as seems to happen a lot given the questions surrounding userContexts
in operations. But easy to add if we think it is required for consistency.
