>Description:
The adduser utility lacks certain functionality desired by many
administrators. These are:
1. 'userdir' functionality; creating a new user's home directory in the
   directory named by the first letter of the user's login
2. ability to, by default, assign users to some group, and not to a usergroup
3. assigning alternate permissions/ownership to the home directory and the
   newly created mail spool file, if desired

All of this should be trivial to implement. Please consider it.
