Follow-up Comment #2, bug #28448 (project screen):

>From acl.c:

/*
 * Add a new user. His password may be NULL or "" if none. His name must not 
 * be "none", as this represents the NULL-pointer when dealing with groups.
 * He has default rights, determined by umask.
 */

Is this "none" a POSIX thing or is it a screen-specific reserved word?

I see "none" also being used in other places as keyword, too. Especially this
code from process.c looks scary to me:

          if (!strcmp(user->u_password, "none"))
            {
              if (n)
                OutputMsg(0, "Password checking disabled");
              free(user->u_password);
              user->u_password = NullStr;
            }

Does that mean that screen handles any user (or screen lock) whose password is
"none" different?
