I don't like the reuse of uid nobody, because it is

1) historically shared abusively by chroot / privdrop daemons
   (btw, this was not entirely our fault..)

2) on a variety of other systems, the uid aliases with the NFS nobody uid
   which isn't without other quirky behaviours

So why does this not have a unique uid?
