Yup, but you don't need the access callback, only name, title and weight:

http://api.drupal.org/api/function/hook_user

Also for your form op you should wrap that in an if block

case 'form':
     if ($category=='hsi_demo'){
         //form code
     }
     break;

I figured I could just write a page and form function, but I'd like to integrate it with user data.  I have the following hook_user implementation:
