True. He needs to have it both ways.
I wonder if there's a way in your Apache config to have authentication use either user profile or validation list authentication? You could probably get there by using different URL's. Of course, the validation list users would still be anonymous for authentication and journaling. You could do DIY logging to record what validation list users do, and control what they can access.

He said he wants his journal to show the IBMi profile of the actual user, and that profile to be used for authority checking.
Yep, I know, but he also wants non-IBM i users to access the app, so neither will work if the web app user doesn't have an IBM i user profile, in which case they will use a generic profile. This, IMO, makes the whole concept break down because all your non-IBM i users will be journalled under the generic profile.
