Currently when authentication plugin is deployed from a different server than out client is running we get invalid link to profile. Authentication plugin forwards information returned by user servlet including user location that is relative. Then our client adds user location as data to our profile, but it is still relative.
What can be done about it?
1. We can assume that user API is well-defined and we display user data in our current client, then authentication plugin should qualify the urls
2. We can assume that every service should provide its own profile editor and redirect user there. In this case authentication plugin should also return the link to profile editor.

I personally think that no. 1 is better because we are using it in case of every other service (file service, git service).
