That is a design decision we leave up to the application developer. So long
as you aren't storing credentials (OAuth applications never do) then we are
happy campers.

It makes sense for a lot of Twitter applications to use the Twitter user id
as the application's internal account id. However it can make growing
difficult if the service will move to support other services other than
Twitter. When developing an application that will likely support more than
one service, a level of indirection (application dependent user ids) would
be recommended.
