It might be useful to clearly distinguish between the username and nsid.
USER-ID kinda ambigious.  Please consider USERNAME when username is
meant and USER-NSID when the NSID is meant.

(I would've wanted to suggest input validation on the format of NSID but
I suppose the purpose of the utility is to test the API _as is_ and pass
as much work as possible -- and intended -- to the Flickr API)
