Understood, but what happens when the membership is provided through
a Group Provider (e.g. CourseManagement Group Provider)? What
"event" puts the mappings in? It can't be the original roster
selection, since the rosters may change (so a new user may be added
to Sakai through the Group Provider at any time).

I am partly asking because there are some things (University Photos
for one, I believe) which are mapped to user id. So how do you know
what user id to use if they aren't already in the SAKAI_USER_ID_MAP?
