I've haven't played around much with iptables, but Linux being what it is there's probably some crazy hack out there for this. But in any event, is there a reason that you can't just run iptables on the terminal server? That seems a lot easier and the overhead shouldn't be too high. If user = naughty user, then block 80 out. If user = semi-naughty user, then redirect 80 out to squid, else = leave the packets alone. Since you say that you have a lot of terminals, you'd probably want the squid server to be a separate box, but for a little network it could even be all in one place.
