Current user management commands take only user ID as means of identification. That ID is provided by Telegram bot API and is not accesible in GUI clients. Goal is to modify those commands to take username also.

Telegram bot API doesn't provide method for identify user by its username. It can only be done by its ID.

A forwarded message will be used as a means of identification.
