My personal account at home is an old Mandrake one (some seven years old) with 
UID=501 and I have always kept it this way because thousands of files and dirs 
on my external disks has this owner and I am too lazy to chown all of them, but 
I'm used to manually change my user's id in /etc/passwd and /etc/login.defs 
before every new sys installation. If GDM used login.defs parameters, those 
small changes above will do all the job for me.
Thanks.
