The previous situation was bad for two reasons:
(1) It had a lot of copies of the code, some of them missing pieces:
UserProfile.objects.get(user__email__iexact=foo)
This was in particular going to be inconvenient since we are dropping
the __user part of that.
(2) It didn't take advantage of our memcached caching.

Otherwise one gets:
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'time'
when trying to use the time module from inside zephyr.lib.
