Note: If you change a user uid, mcp will use find(1) and chown(8) to change
the ownerships of the user's files to the new uid.  Since this usually takes
more than a few seconds, mcp spawns these processes in the background (at
low priority).  So don't expect the file ownerships to be changed
immediately.
