ember-cli-simple-auth-devise not sending the right attributes

Question

I'm trying to get ember-cli-simple-auth-devise to work. I already did the modifications to Rails as requested by https://github.com/simplabs/ember-simple-auth/tree/master/packages/ember-simple-auth-devise but I found the emberjs was sending the wrong attributes: account[identification] and account[password] instead of user[email] and user[password].

I changed

ENV['simple-auth-devise'] = {
  resourceName: 'account'
};

to

ENV['simple-auth-devise'] = {
  resourceName: 'user'
};

and login.hbs to contain:

<form {{action 'authenticate' on='submit'}}>
    <label for="email">Email</label>
    {{input value=email placeholder='Email'}}
    <label for="password">Password</label>
    {{input value=password placeholder='Password' type='password'}}
    <button type="submit">Login</button>
</form>

so that the form generates a form field called email instead of identification. In the controller:

export default Ember.Controller.extend({
    actions: {
        authenticate: function() {
            var data = this.getProperties('email', 'password');
            return this.get('session').authenticate('simple-auth-authenticator:devise', data);
        }
    }
});

data has what I want:

{email: "[email protected]", password: "supersecret"}

but Rails only

{"user"=>{"password"=>"supersecret"},
 "controller"=>"sessions",
 "action"=>"create"}"

The email is missing. How do I make the email reach Rails?

The identification form field should be left as identification as it'll be converted to email automatically when calling devise. The conversion of name happens according to the identificationAttributeName configuration.
