Ideas:
Suppose that you have anonymous shares -- ones used as readonly software repositories.
If you wanted to log them you could have  a
log file = %m-%U.log if you wanted to find out who was using the these files,
(That is, if smith uses the share from the machine aardvark, you'd end up
with a aardvark-smith.log file.)

On the other hand if you want just to analyze how much traffic the anonymous
shares  are getting, you may prefer a log file = %m-%u.

This may also hold true for shares where you force user to something, and want to track who wrote the new no-alcohol-at-the-staff-party policy onto the company handbook share...

I can see possible situations with include files too, where you want to keep the base
file simple, but include files based who is trying to do what.
