Pretix is used by **users**. We want to enable global users who can just login into
pretix and buy tickets for as many events as they like but at the same time it
should be possible to create some kind of local user to have a temporary account
just to buy tickets for one single event.
The problem is, we cannot use usernames as primary keys for our users, as we
do not want one username to be blocked forever just because of one temporary
account using it (people would have to think of a new username for every temporary
account they create). On the other hand, we can not use e-mail addresses either,
as those are not unique (imagine one person having multiple temporary accounts)
and they should not be required for temporary account (to enable anonymity).
Therefore, we split our users into two groups and use an internal **identifier**
as our primary key:
**Local users**
Local users do only exist inside the scope of one event. They are identified by
usernames, which are only valid for exactly one event. Internally, their identifier
is "{username}@{event.id}.event.pretix"
**Global users**
Global users exist everywhere in the installation of Tixl. They can buy tickets
for multiple events and they can be managers of one or more Organizers/Events.
Global users are identified by e-mail addresses.
should be possible to order products **without** needing an user account.
