I was a little surprised that there was no way to do more than one user mapping.

For the stated use case, it makes sense, but it would be nice to be able to pull a disk from another machine (in a different uid scheme) and be able to mount it to back-up onto another machine, and provide a mapping for all user ids present on the disk.
