Something similar can be placed into system-wide profiles such as
/etc/profile or /etc/csh.login. So, there will be no need to read passwd
file and NIS-aware systems will work fine. And it will be transparent
in terms of creating new users - no need separate login class.
Also, there is no problem with rewritting environment variables (which
some times can be set "readonly" due to security considerations).
