[wp-hackers] current_user_can

I've seen the following in several plugins, and sure I've seen it in
core code somewhere:
if (current_user_can('edit_user', $current_user->ID)) {
//do something
}
Is this valid? A look at the current_user_can function seems to suggest
there isn't a second argument to that function. There also doesn't seem
to be an 'edit_user' capability listed, only 'edit_users' (plural).
Considering I've seen this used, and it seems to be returning true/false
appropriately am I missing something?
Rob.
