You don't NEED to answer it at all. We understand what you are saying,
and we don't agree with you. Further input from you will not persuade us
to join you in your anti-microsoft blathering. We want to make freebsd
the best tool for as many jobs as possible. FreeBSD is often used as a
windows file server, so anything we can do to accomodate that function
is worth pursuing.
I've already patched rmuser in -Current to handle removal of any user
in the password database (albeit, related to another problem report),
and I'd appreciate it if Gerhard would test it in his environment to see
if it works with password strings with $ signs in them, or whatever else
he can throw at it.
