Is there a program to store account information so it can be preserved across a new install?

And having done this, copy /etc to /home/etc before the new install. This will give you something for comparison when you find "This doesn't work anymore...".
I also have /usr/local being a symlink to /home/local.

Even better - mount /usr/local as a separate partition... then it doesn't get overwritten.
