Thanks Jan.  My quick check of the other places using $imp['user'] shows
that they already work.  In the previous stable release of IMP, there was
code "$imp = &$_SESSION['imp']" before the call to the vinfo hook.  That
was removed, I guess to move toward the superglobal stuff in php.  Fixing
the example is probably all that is needed though.
