My thinking was that the failure modes would then be limited to the switch to
systemd-sysusers only so we wouldn't have to debug two new implementations
(systemd-sysusers and RPM's integration) but just one (systemd-sysusers).

That said, having slept on it, I agree that such a two-staged approach would
just make things needlessly more chaotic.  Just switching the whole thing as
proposed is going to be simpler, yup :)
