By default if you have different user_prefs files, then you don't have a global AWL database.
The global AWL case only happens if SA is always run as one user, such as root when run from a milter. In which case it always uses the same awl database, but it also always uses the same user_prefs file. (note that user_prefs is not per user addressed in the email, it's per user invoking SA)
If SA is invoked as different users, the AWL database should be ~/.spamassassin/autowhitelist.db. This places a different database in the home directory of each user running SA.
So to customize it in the user_prefs shouldn't even be necessary by default, but I don't see why it would prevent you from doing so.

what is the reason for auto_whitelist_path being privileged? I want to
overwrite the setting from the global local.cf file in the user_prefs
file. Otherwise whitelist_to will lower scores for SPAM and this will
"poison" my global AWL.
