1694 * Remove obselete-before-being-used username template
1695 * Convert post.d/10adduser to use debconf passthrough to the passwd package,
1696 and thus share its user-adding code rather than duplicating it.
1697 - But don't enable it yet, since we need to find a way to prevent its
1698 questions from being asked

1732 * Add debconf templates for various things that we currently hardcode.
1733 Not actually used yet due to need for testing, but having the
1734 templates present greatly simplifies testing the remaining integration

1790 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get

1793 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
