here's a different/simpler diff.  instead of using got_parseuid() we can
defer that check in main(): this avoids both an extra lookup and
handling two different views on the user (uid and string).

I'm wondering if we should attempt first to parse the string as a number
to avoid an extra lookup in that case (i know it's not even remotely
performance sensitive, but it's still an extra lookup :P)

I'm also bundling the diff for permit/deny since the `user' one now
builds on top of it.
