See the external_acl_type description. There is more than just OK/ERR
the helper may return, one of the extra attributes the helper may return
is the user name which can then be picked up by cache_peer login=...

Destilled texts from the squid.conf(.default) external_acl_type
documentation:

        FORMAT specifications
         %IDENT Ident user name

        General result syntax:
          OK/ERR keyword=value ...

        Defined keywords:
          user= The users name (login also understood)
          password= The users password (for PROXYPASS login=
cache_peer)

Henrik
