I think - imho ;-) - that it would be more 'elegant' to put it in the else 
clause of OC_User::isLoggedIn().

If user_id is not present in $_SESSION a check for it in 
$_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] could be made. It would probably require a helper 
method for doing the actual authentication.

But you may be right. I will have to look a bit more on the code when I'm less 
brain numb ;-)
