But the problem it solves is "lack of an official list of reserved system
userids". When Fedora was a third-party repository, it could really do much
about the official list, but now that we are fedora, we can.

And particularly since the fedora-usermgmt approach is most problematic in
enterprise environments, now's a good time to fix the problem rather than
patch around it.
