Attributable is a videojuicer-specific module for handling
attribution of objects to their original uploaders.

The Videojuicer API allows authentication with one of two kinds of 
authorised token:

1.  A User token, which has permissions of either 'read-user' or 'write-user'.
    Objects created with a User token are automatically *attributed* to the
    authenticated user. Requests made with User tokens cannot reassign
    objects to other users or manually specify the user_id of an object.
    
    Attempts to manually specify user_id with a User token will result in a 
    validation error on the object.
    
2.  A Master token, which has permissions of either 'read-master' or
    'write-master'. Requests made with a Master token are able to 
    manually set the user_id on objects.
    
    Attempts to create objects without a user_id will attribute the
    object to the user who authorised the Master token.
