Not a blocker. I think the issue here is the best way to share state between webpay and zamboni.

window.localStorage.getItem('0::user')

Will give us the user from commonplace. How secure and how much we can use that is the question, if we can use it, we should and then eliminate the double login.

Hrm.. I disagree. Making the user log in twice makes the user flow almost unusable. So, even though the payment flow would work if the user logged in twice, I doubt there are many users out there willing to log in twice to purchase an app.

I would at least make this P1 major. Please reconsider.

This doesn't happen anymore. The user needs to sign in only once.
