Pages look up who you are once, and a first sign-in always gets its own role

Every page in the platform first works out who is signed in and which of their roles is in use. Until now, each section of a page that showed your own work repeated that lookup, so a busy dashboard asked the same question several times per load. It now asks once and every section shares the answer.

The first time someone signs in to an organisation, their account for that role is created and then read back. That read now asks for the role just created. Before, it could in rare cases pick up a different role’s account for the same person.

Nothing you see changes. Pages load as before, with fewer database calls behind them.
