    Add an AJAX endpoint for requesting user information and formatting
    
    Javascript which may want to display a formatted user now has a way to
    fetch the preferred format, as well as retrieve user details.  Multiple
    users may be requested in a single call by specifying multiple values
    for the "id" parameter.  A JSON hash is returned with keys matching the
    requested ids for easy client side lookup.  The JSON object looks like:
    
        {
           "12" : {
              "id" : "12",
              "Name" : "root",
              "RealName" : "Enoch Root",
              "EmailAddress" : "root at localhost",
              "Privileged" : true,
              "_formatted" : "Enoch Root"
              "_html" : "Enoch Root",
           }
        }
