no - when there is a "User=" statement in the unitfile it's a strong 
reason to refuse start that unit if that user don't exist instead 
silently fall back to root and casting "0day" to a int 0 is just a 
sloppy implementation with no good reason

frankly even PHP makes difference here

if($bla == "0day")
versus
if($bla === "0day")

the latter won't evaluate to 0 in no case
