Indeed you are not the only one. Even in large LDAP shops, there could
be a local "break-glass" account, so managing hashes could still be a
factor in those environments.
One of the pain points of managing a large-scale Puppet infrastructure
is supporting different hashes for different OS's. I've seen this done,
and the result is...not always pretty.
What does usage of yescrypt look like in the rest of the ecosystem? Are
other major distros moving to it, or likely to?

interaction.
Has anyone some better idea?
I'd advise against this. People can use a system like Puppet to sync
password hashes between systems (as a cheap alternative to LDAP). If
they use older distros that don't support it, it'll end up flapping
where one system sets it to the older hashing and one to the newer.
Or maybe I'm just the only person who does this.
