[Flickr APIs] flickr.people Search by name?

flickr.photos.search allows you to specify the user_id to narrow the
search down. That is handy but from a users perspective a user name is
much more useable than an id.

I realize there could be privacy issues but is there any chance
flickr.people will get a search method which allows a name parameter and
returns the user_id?

Otherwise while looping through the results of flickr.photos.search I am
going to have run off a flickr.people.getInfo on the user_id just to
check the username.
