I wish we hadn't added the tags that report the config settings (user, exe, pattern, etc), since they can conflict with this tag and don't seem very useful as they are hardcoded. In the future I would like to update this plugin so that it always uses the actual user, but this will require additional work since it will be a breaking change and we may want to line it up with a larger overhaul.
