Me for example, although I'd be more annoyed than
pissed. ;-)
Both at home and work I have all user accounts centralized
in LDAP. I don't need or want anaconda or some other initial setup
tool to force account creation upon me. Nor the setup of using LDAP/Kerberos/etc.
for identification/authorization. That's one of puppet's jobs here
and having to create a dummy account to proceed past some mandatory setup
is irritating. I've raised this concern once before already. I
don't mind hitting a skip button -- I certainly don't want to make it hard
for others to set up their accounts manually if that's their cup o' tea.
