No problem. edit_lines is super powerful tool to wield. Once you learn it, you 
can conquer the world. Make sure to test on a test file, I see some issues with 
the quick hack that could arise.  
Like:


 select_start => "^$(userid):";


should probably be


 select_start => "^$(userid):$";



Minor difference, but I am paranoid.
I would also stop the region selection after the user id, just in case. Also, 
the regexs I used are  for the standard /etc/security/password, your's may vary.
