Hey @martinowren - thanks for this suggestion!
Can you elaborate on what you're looking to achieve / how you would handle this in traditional WordPress?
Our ::set_auth_cookie() function mimics traditional WordPress's wp_set_auth_cookie(), which means we can use the set_auth_cookie action hook to create an additional cookie with whatever information you want.
I know that WordPress expects their cookies to be a specific shape, so I'm not entirely sure how one would go about adding additional information to those without breaking things, but maybe with some more information I could narrow down a solution that also translates to headless.
Hey @martinowren I'm going to close this for now, please feel free to reply with the above, and I'll go ahead and reopen.
