User is a separate Model class from Person because the same login
ID may be used to, for example, serve as Contributor in one Program

Person entity with a different Google Account if necessary.
A User entity participates in the following relationships implemented
as a db.ReferenceProperty elsewhere in another db.Model:
persons) a 1:many relationship of Person entities identified by the
User. This relation is implemented as the 'persons' back-reference
