There don't have to be any adduser variables to support this, right?
Currently I have these 4:
FIRST_UID = 1000
LAST_UID = 29999
FIRST_SYSTEM_UID = 100
LAST_SYSTEM_UID = 999
adduser will only allocate outside of these ranges if asked for a
specific id. I will document the above user and system ranges and the
other ranges in adduser.conf(5) and adduser(8).
I'll release a new adduser within the next day.
