Maybe something like this should also be considered for libutil - is
there anywhere else this (or similiar) functionality might be used in
userland?

One drawback (sort of mentioned by Matt Green) is that this makes
"nobody" a standard account - it's in our example passwd file, but
that doesn't mean that some people don't delete it.
