After having reviewed the code i decided to not implement this feature
because 1) aliases are meant as "other names for local accounts" 2) the
same feature can be achieved by a "useradd" + "usersetmproc" with a
redirect line.
Mapping a locally handled account to an external one is totally a redirect
operation and not a alias mapping one.
