I just ran:

__user johnny --home /var/lib/johnny

discovered, that I should create the user's home dir too, so I changed my code to:

__user johnny --create-home --home /var/lib/johnny

and saw, that __user would now not create the user's home dir.

Hmm, yes, this is a nasty bug. So far we rely on useradd to do the heavy lifting, but it is only called if the user does not exist.

So I guess we should use __directory to manage the home directory instead of relying on useradd
