That's what I did ... brute force rather than clever and haven't had a
single problem between F14 and F16 since. There's lots of past postings
about any gotchas (the only ones I encountered were making sure only the
dot files that you care about are copied into the new user's home and
general cleanup with any wheel/sudo access).
