I am doing this soon, also, so I've put in a little thought on the problem.

My guess (untested) is :

<select name="users">
  <dtml-in getUserNames>
    <option value="<dtml-var sequence-item>"><dtml-var sequence-item>
  </dtml-in>
</select>

Well, as I said, this is untested, but I'm assuming getUserNames does this 
for you.  The ZQR is somewhat sparse on the details.
