Issue status update for http://drupal.org/node/23383

 Project:      Drupal

 Component:    theme system
 Category:     tasks
 Priority:     normal
 Assigned to:  Anonymous
 Reported by:  Bèr Kessels
 Updated by:   factoryjoe
 Status:       patch

I will +1 if this simply means that the user array is passed on for
theming, which I think it does. In which case, this is consistent w/
nodes and comments, so I think it's good.

Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/user_module_theme_list.patch (1.88 KB)

Since the function currently only receives a string of HTML there is no
way to add inormation to a user list.
You cannot do a user_load to add additional information, like the
avatar.
Pattern matching the UID from the url in the html is not an option,
since a username could be aliassed, thus in order to get the UID you
need a lot of quite heavy code.
This patch changes the passed argument into an array of user objects.
By default the objects need only to contain the name and UID. 


This patch also cleans up the online user list block, which had some
inconsistent code.


After his patch you can have fancy users lists like on my development
