Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: user-setup

user-setup insists that I create a user in spite of me setting the
following preseed options:

d-i passwd/root-password            password test
d-i passwd/root-password-again      password test
d-i passwd/root-login               boolean  true
d-i passwd/make-user                boolean false

A quick look through user-setup shows that user-setup-ask checks for 
"passwd/root-login", and if this is true, then checks the return of the 
is_system_user function. All is_system_user checks for is whether NIS is in use 
or a local user with a UID between 1000 and 29999.
Granted there is no easy way to check that LDAP is being used for users (which 
is what I am using), but I do expect my passwd/make-user preseed to be honoured 
by the installer.
