Can be done. Or you could make Squid query NoCat.

In both cases you need an external acl helper returning the correct
username to Squid. See the external_acl_type directive.


If using the header approach then the username is actually given by
Squid to the helper, but Squid does not yet know it's a username until
the helper says so.. And you also need a header_access directive to stop
the custom header from being forwarded out..
