Good question, hmm, the ones that you can unregister with deluser?
Ls-ing /etc/passwd you can see a bunch of entries. Some are system
users, necessary for the functioning of the default minimal system,
some are not. Would be great having a command that would spit that
out:
tellwho [-a] [-i] [-d] [-n] ....
-a: Lists all the users, system defined and 'people like'
-i: Lists the indispensable users, those whose absence may break the
system
-d: Lists details about users selected with other options, such as
registration time, real name, etc
-n: Lists deletable users, that would not be described by '-i'
-D: Tells why, if '-i' is given
Can the root remove h[i,e][m,r]self from the system?
