You cannot override it, but when the UserFolder works correctly,
it should use this user only when its roles are sufficient
for the current request. Otherwise, it should return None which
results in an "Unauthorized" response (unless there is a UserFolder
higher up which can authenticate the user with the required roles).

The "sufficient" roles are determined (only) from the published
object (i.e. the one located by traversal).
Try to access an objects viewable only to (e.g.) "Manager"
(e.g. "acl_users/manage_users"). You should get a login
dialog (unless you have been logged in a "Manager").
