I'll add that in, see what drops out.

I did think of that, but it's things like triggering that, keeping it up to 
date (ie. when users are removed from AD) and the rest, and I thought it might 
become quite a big project really and something that may be better written as 
some kind of alternate idmap option (i.e. instead of just having static and 
ephemeral, have static, ephemeral and cached - with cached basically being 
automatically created user mappings).

To be fair if idmap was able to just use static mapping to a range of IDs that 
would be good enough.
