Not so minor if you want to avoid having your schema break other software you

Why not just make the shell /bin/false for when you want to stop ftp and ssh,
and make the shell /bin/true (and put /bin/true in /etc/shells) to allow ftp
but not ssh? This is the traditional method of doing such things and it
still works...
