The other problem addressed by fedora-usermngt is that we'll also 
eventually run out of fixed 100-499 id's as well.

Again, news to me.  How is it problematic?  My perception of this 
discussion is that it's mostly FUD, in not understanding the *real* 
fundamental issues fedora-usermngt addresses, and inventing theoretical 
problems that it may cause.

Regardless, imo, this is a *fedora* issue, and should be addressed 
globally, not here in epel-only space.
