If the user has only one identity, then the PPI header is not necessary 
as the user's identity will be know by the proxy, and the user for 
example bill be identified by its authentication username. But this 
again may cause problem with multidomain configurations and the auth 
user does not include domain.

Thus, maybe adding the PPI header always is a good idea.
