This is an idea to extend account squashing using a numerical parameter. 
Currently only the root account can be squashed. However, we could extend this
facility by using a numeric option added to the /etc/exports file.

For example:

/foobar 10.0.0.0/18(rw,squashbelow=14)

This would squash all accounts numbered 14 or below.

This option could still be used with the no_root_squash option:

/foobar 10.0.0.0/18(rw,squashbelow=14,no_root_squash)

Here, accounts 1 to 14 are squashed, but the root account (0) is not 
squashed.

Mark.
