I went a little different route than this path by allowing the user to
specify one or more groups via the gid setting.  It will also expand the
string "*" (if specified as the first item) into the normal grouplist
for the requested user.  I then changed a non-super-user daemon-run to
default the uid/gid parameters to NULL, which allows rsync to know if
the user requested a value, and it will now complain if a specified
setting fails.  A super-user run still defaults to nobody if
unspecified.
