Thanks for the reply

> 1. Group management and groups membership

That's a bug, a new added user should be part of the standard needed
groups, we need to build a list of those (using what the old tools was
doing would be a start) and change the standard and admin profiles to
match what is needed

>  2. Support for profile ?

similar bug, the admin profile should add users the right groups

> 3. Home directory

we can discuss with upstream adding that option somewhere in the ui
though it seems rather a non standard use to me

> 4. Shell

there is a bug open about that I think, the default user shell should
not be "sh"

> 5. User Id

We should perhaps include user creation to deja-dup in some way if
that's the usecase there, I'm Cc-ing mterry to the bug in case he has an
opinion about that


Well, it seems that your issues is mostly that the default profiles have not 
been adapted to use the right groups on Ubuntu added with some bugs, I think 
that having the profiles right would catch most of the normal use. It's likely 
that upstream will argue against adding extra features like the user id or the 
user directory to the options because they will see that as administrators 
features and the control-center is supposed to be a normal user configuration 
tool, not a detailled administration utility.
