Come on, on your private box you can do whatever you want with your
uids. If you like using smmsp, fine. If you want a special local user,
just create one with uid 499 or 20001 or whatever. The system is
probably not going to take these numbers away from you in the forseeable
future. This stuff is just a policy for committed ports.

As you are already the 2nd person asking this question, do I miss
anything obvious here?
