[hobbit] Process monitoring per user

I am using Linux ES release 4 .

My point is that looks like hobbit does not parse the process UID colum but
checks only CMD colum (while bigb monitors all ps colums) so that even if I
set up hobbit-clients.cfg to monitor UID it will be ignored .

Do you know a pragmatic way to monitor UID colum ?
