Regarding fixed uid/gid pairs, I fail to see where fedora-usermgmt
improves anything over a default useradd/groupadd. If it's the
configurable offset, then it's the opposite : It brings back the
possibility of having different uid/gid pairs on differently configured
machines...

...or am I missing something?
