Comment (by jeremyfelt):

 I would go with `determine_current_user`.

 An alternative would be something around "valid" or "cookie" only because
 of what we're using it for in core. Our default purpose is to filter
 whether the current user session is still valid by checking cookies. Maybe
 `determine_current_user_session` would work, though that pigeonholes it a
 bit.
