You could certainly file that.

Anyway, you need not know perl to implement this. The following
patch should be all that's needed (untested):

--- /usr/sbin/adduser 2005-03-04 23:35:49.000000000 +0100
+++ /tmp/adduser  2005-04-12 19:23:03.748737220 +0200

     &systemcall('/usr/local/sbin/adduser.local', $new_name, $new_uid,
    $new_gid, $home_dir) if (-x "/usr/local/sbin/adduser.local");
     
+    &systemcall('run-parts', '--report', '--exit-on-error', "-a $new_name",
+      "-a $new_uid", "-a $new_gid", "-a $home_dir", '--', '/etc/adduser.d')
+      if (-d '/etc/adduser.d');
+
     exit 0;
 }
 

Feel free to include it if you file the bug.

You should also modify deluser appropriately. I leave that as an
exercise.
