[horde] homedir based on uid and not username

OK, I've done this (used _username_{from,to}_backend hooks to create a 
handle for storing horde data in such a way as a user can change their 
username but not lose their horde settings).  Now I find that horde is 
trying to use the handle for accessing non-horde services, such as FTP 
storage of ingo scripts and LDAP lookups for group memberships.  Some of 
these I can work around, but others, like having to add the handle for 
an "Individual User" when updating share permissions, rather than just 
their current username, are proving rather problematic.  Interestingly, 
in this last case, the username is presented after the permissions are 
updated.

Am I doing this incorrectly?  Are my expectations excessive?  Is this a 
Horde problem, but not a big enough problem to merit more attention?  I 
can accept positive answers to any of these three questions.


thanks,
Leland
