As noted in this week's FPC meeting minutes, the draft is probably going to be
voted on next week. A more fleshed out and cleaned up version which also
takes into account some findings in the FPC meeting as well as other feedback
on -maintainers is now online. Comments still welcome.
Is it really a good idea to run /bin/id in scriptlets? Depending on
nsswitch configuration, couldn't this block waiting for NIS/etc lookups?
(though maybe the same is true of useradd; I've always wondered whether
it would be better to be using l{user,group}add instead)
