The Admin::User model from Koi is not directly present in the generated application. This leads to potential issues if we need to extend the model for app-specific behaviour.
I see three main avenues for extending the model:
Copy the model from Koi into the application wholesale;
Extend the model in the application; or
Extend the model via initializers.
Each option has benefits and drawbacks and may be suitable in different situations. For example, 3 might be a preferred approach if we are just adding a concern to the model. 1 is the simplest solution but 2 reduces the additional boilerplate.
We want to document our preferred approach(es) and in which situations they would be most applicable.
