[ZPT] user variable and python products

[Clint Brubakken]

In the page template Product/www/index_html.zpt . 

If I have the following: 


<em tal:content="user/getUserName"></em>

I get the error: 
Error Type: Undefined
Error Value: "user" not found in "user/getUserName"

but 
<em tal:content="request/AUTHENTICATED_USER/getUserName">template
id</em>	

work correctly.


It seems somehow the user variable is not being set
