Thanks for those references, but they don't help

AppendIfNoLineMatching I believe used to take a regexp to determine if there 
was a matching line. Your example just puts the line in if the exact same line 
isn't there already (as far as I can tell). Also, I thought about input select, 
but for some reason (at least according to the documentation) it will only work 
with either a file or a multi-line input (which a shadow password file entry 
isnt)

Also, the setting root password suggestion is only useful for setting a 
password. What if I want to add a user that doesn't yet exist in the file ?
