Huh? What's wrong with a simple "useradd foobar"?
On Fedora/RHEL/Centos the defaults for useradd in /etc/login.defs are
very sane, so you don't need extra commands:
  - Create private group (USERGROUPS_ENAB) -- yes
  - Create home directory (CREATE_HOME) -- yes

So all that is left is to "passwd foobar", but that is routine to any Linux 
user even 
during normal life-cycle.
