Hello,

I agree, it is rather surprising that removing a user does not remove it.
So I think it should be fully stateless (as long as the user's home
directory is not erased, of course; so this should remain as a state and
be reactivated once the user is available again, which could cause problems
with user names vs. numbers).

Andreas
