Description

I find it crazy annoying that Firebase User Objects can't have any custom metadata related with them.

Simple example if I would like to automatically send the verification email within a `onCreate` cloud function when the user signs up like described in [#46](46#issuecomment-425073754). There is no sane way for me to find out the users locale for the email as the `firestore` / `realtime database` user record might not be created yet.

The same is true if I would like to block users depending on some custom logic that might depend on a value specific to the user like described in [this issue](https://github.com/firebase/firebaseui-web/issues/99#issuecomment-359443621).

Even custom claims are not a solution as they might not be set yet when the `onCreate` method runs. Setting custom claims in the `onCreate` method is impossible as well as all I have access to is the `user` object and as I said it can contain any custom metadata.

For my understanding allowing custom meta information for users would solve a lot of problems that are currently present if somebody wants to use Firebase Authentication in a few more advanced ways than the barebones the firebase SDKs currently offer.

* Operating System version: Cloud Functions Node 8.14.0
* Firebase SDK version: 6.3.0
* Firebase Product: Auth & Functions
