Also beware of strange stuff the user may have done to the data in
$HOME.
On one of the multi-user systems I admin for my University one user had
placed a symlink to /usr/bin as $HOME/bin and another symlink to / as
$HOME/root. I have no idea as to *why* but imagine the fun you can have
if you just naivly delete something following symlinks.
