Are you looking for a formal solution, or a simple hack?

Does this apply to all users, or only a subset of accounts?

Are we talking active userid or effective userid?

I get the sense you're trying to accomplish something and 
haven't really defined what you're trying to do.

A good intellectual exercise, at any rate.
