this is due to a missing uid in the passed object - but you already 
figured that.

So the __identity value (uid) of the user is submitted, right?

from what you wrote everything seems to be correct. Have you checked if 
all other properties are correctly mapped to the incoming user object? 
Maybe you have a typo in one of the property names and thus extbase is 
not able to process the object correctly.
Another possibility could be that extbase is not able to find the object 
in the defined storagePid - could that be the reason?
