just checked and it doesn't seem to exist.

MinShowUID says it will ignore any user (except root) with a UID less than
this number.  Setting it to 1000 works great for Debian however there are
also users that go above that...  On my system alone I have:

  nobody:x:65534:65534:nobody:/home:/bin/sh
  alias:x:64010:65534:qmail alias,,,:/var/qmail/alias:/bin/false
  qmaild:x:64011:65534:qmail daemon,,,:/var/qmail:/bin/false
  qmails:x:64012:64010:qmail send,,,:/var/qmail:/bin/false
  qmailr:x:64013:64010:qmail remote,,,:/var/qmail:/bin/false
  qmailq:x:64014:64010:qmail queue,,,:/var/qmail:/bin/false
  qmaill:x:64015:65534:qmail log,,,:/var/qmail:/bin/false
  qmailp:x:64016:65534:qmail pw,,,:/var/qmail:/bin/false


so if we could say ignore below MinShowUID and above MaxShowUID that
would be cool. Then I could say 

  MinShowUID=1000
  MaxShowUID=29999


as Debian's defaults.
