Bug#243688: base-config: Allow creating more than one non-priviledged user

[Andrew Pollock <apollock@debian.org>]

Package: base-config
Version: 2.17
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

I think it would be nice if when creating that first non-root user, at
the end of it, it would loop and ask if another should be added, or
provide an interface to add a (perhaps small) batch of users in one hit.

regards

Andrew
