Would like email (at least) to be retrieved from federated identity providers

[ceich]

Feature Request

Current behavior: when the user authenticates with Facebook, even though the requested scope includes email, the /me request made by withFacebook defaults the params, which returns only name and id fields. The resulting user object has only those attributes.

I would like to use federated logins to infer my user's identity, and need a stable user id. Lacking any imagination, I would like to use the user's email address. (The app supports all three federated providers, and choosing a different provider results in a different identity pool user id, whereas the email is the same in each provider.)

After further thinking I believe I need to use the Federated feature of User Pool itself, which seems to imply hosted login UI.

If this is true, aws-amplify would be out of the picture, at least as far as my needs go.
