no. there is no universal way to obtain a list of users for this and consequently no \
way to configure it graphically. therefore it must be based on unix names. apart from \
that, the name "classic" says something about the intentions. ;)

so the solution is once again writing a proper conversation plugin. base it off of \
the classic one. either cut it down to make no assumptions about the meaning of the \
userid lineedit, or trim it to the functions of the particular pam module.
