Motivation and Context

Accessing the ctx.request_context.request.user is a simple way to retrieve the scopes available to a user (as well as access token and client ID, albeit client ID is already available as an attr to the Context class), which is useful for some request handling. E.g. in some MCP clients (OpenAI's DeepResearch MCP implementations), scopes cannot necessarily be handled at the middleware level because everything needs to hit a specific fetch tool, so scopes need to be handled within the request callback. This means scopes need to be available within that callback. Adding a user property to the ctx makes it easier for a developer to discern where they might get access to the user's scopes.

How Has This Been Tested?

I have been able to access the user attribute via ctx.request_context.request.user in my own code.
