I do not know what 'visible to the nft tool' means.
No 'obvious' mistake in the register department.
My only comment is that it looks like you are re-inventing the wheels
we already have, such as nf_log and nf_queue.
If this is a learning exercise, fine, but we have real missing
functionality that could be added instead.
If this targets upstream, you should really discuss what problem wants
to be solved. The building blocks we already have should be enough
to do uid based authentication.
(something like
nf_log/queue -> userspace daemon -> query -> update nft set w. uid)
