I can only assume that you replied to *my* post since your mail client
seems to be broken and you replied to your own posting with evil quoting
and a useless disclaimer.

The only way is to run an IDENT daemon on each client. But if those
workstations are under user control this is not reliable.

Generally a proxy request is a TCP connection on port 3128 and TCP/IP
doesn't transport information like "who is currently logged in". So
if you laugh or not - the question remains: how is Squid supposed to
guess who is the user on the workstation end?
