The log-in state is fetched on attach and very fast, making it
basically impossible in practice to add a comment before it returns.
Making it synchronous simplifies the code, and makes it easier to later
pass in the log-in state as a property rather than fetching it here
when we split all the restAPI calls into a wrapper component.
