A better solution would be to chroot to a common place (eg: /home assuming
all users are in /home)  otherwise you'll need the bin etc skeletons to
each user's directory. 

In that vein, anyone working on a dynamically extensible file system like
the journaling system on AIX.  It's very handy to be able to grow your
/home as you add disks to the machine.
