15031	I need an alternate ID field with built in validation.	rcfeldmann	nobody	"I need users to enter an ID to access other users accounts.  I do not want to rely only on the default sequential ID as it would be too easy for an incorrect entry to bring up a different user.  Also malicious users can just sit and keep adding/subtacting one to every number to determine my entire user directory.

I would like to add two digits to the end of the ID to make an extended ID.  The first part will be the core (django's default sequential number), concatenated with a digit that is calculated from the core's digits, concatenated again with a digit that is calculated from the previous two digits.

Example would be user 00000435 would become user 0000043527. (4+3+5=12 so just use the last digit of 2, 5+2=7 again using last digit if it were > 9)

I was thinking I just need to have an extra field in my database.  So I would have ID and ID-Ext and make it appear to users as just one big ID.  But here is the trouble.

1) How do I get this to be calculated automatically when a new user is added?
2) How do I get the URLs looking nice?  Without the extension, it would be ""site/users/00000435/"", but I want them to enter ""site/users/0000043527/"".

Another benefit of this is that my site looks a little more professional without the problem of convincing people to add them to my site seeing their user ID as 00000005 letting them know I only have 4 other users at that point.  Instead they see 0000000550."		closed	Uncategorized	1.2		invalid			Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	0	0
