No doubt about that. But up to now, IMHO requesting fedora-usermgt in pre/post scriptlets is a solution in search of a real problem.

Hmm... well usually when i see many people offering replacement implementations to replace the existing tool implementation..i see this as disagreement on exactly what the problem is... not that there is a lack of a problem. You did offer a competing implementation in this thread. The one thing I know for sure.. is that everyone seems to be confused. Perhaps its best to dial back this conversation and ask Enrico to give a "brief" summary as to primary problem being addressed... with one or two common example situations. And if he can dig up an old fedora.us mailinglist thread for reference where the original design and of the wrapper implementation was discussed that might help everyone refresh their memories as to the original reasons this was created. We aren't going to get anywhere if we aren't all on the same page.
