Oh Roan, I should've really asked.. Which way do we want to move to?
Ideally, the 'user' parameter type would trigger validation code in ApiBase
that is relatively relaxed and validates rc-style (allow IPs, throw error on
invalid stuff, don't mess with namespace prefixes so rcuser=Talk:Foo means
User:Talk:Foo and rcuser=User:Foo means User:User:Foo ; the latter is
presumably invalid). Logevents can then enforce the user-must-exist criterion
by just checking $user-isLoggedIn() and throwing an error if that returns
false.
Disclaimer: I don't know offhand which validation function does this. I think
it's User::getCanonicalName() or a related function; see
