2238 * Remove obselete-before-being-used username template
2239 * Convert post.d/10adduser to use debconf passthrough to the passwd package,
2240 and thus share its user-adding code rather than duplicating it.
2241 - But don't enable it yet, since we need to find a way to prevent its
2242 questions from being asked

2277 Not actually used yet due to need for testing, but having the
2278 templates present greatly simplifies testing the remaining integration

2334 - This doesn't work very well yet (PCI BusID doesn't seem to get

2337 the right thing if gdm or X isn't installed
