This was requested by @ronnyhartenstein while talking with him about the setup process.

It would be really nice to see the user under which the cron job should be executed in the web UI. (admin settings -> cron).

@nextcloud/designers What do you think? Does that make sense?

Isn't it always www-data?

No. The PHP process can easily run under another user. Mine runs as "nextcloud-com" for example ;)

Well, I cronned as www-data and got errors about permission problems. So I must start it with sudo to get the glue. So I appreciate a hint :)
