- move base passwd/shadow/group/gshadow operation to module for allow write
different backend modules for db, NIS, LDAP and others. Default backend it
will be goot if will be chosen depending on /etc/nsswitch.conf and allow
override this by -r <repository> options (where the <repository> can be
file, db, nis nisplus, ldap .. like on /etc/nsswitch.conf in service column).
passwd have old piece of code with handling -r option and it will be good

user databases by well known tools.
- useradd:
- add handle create user mail spool in maildir format.
- add handle -n switch in groups and id command for allow query is
group/user with specified id/gid exist - this will be very usable

- userdel:
- add backup option for the removal of user resources,
- add lookop and remove per user group.

- check combination of options (e.g. -u/-l)
- newgrp: check the USE_PAM section.

pw_gid specified and exist
pw_gid specified but does not exist
* name
* number
pw_gid not specified.
- newusers: document what happens when no uid is specified.
- newusers: add option --system?
-Documentation:
