Should we guess that this is a chrooted environment? I can't imagine
else why these dirs exist in a user's home.

Each user his own name + password or a global one? For a shared FTP
directory I don't think individual auth data makes much sense (only if
you want to log each step and identify the users).
Just create the FTP user and chroot him with vfstpd's facility and allow
only authenticated connections.
FTP access for system users is auth only by default setup of vsftpd as
far as I know.
