This is a cross distribution problem and I do not think we should just go it alone without at least speaking with other distros. Has anyone contacted Fedora and or Debian to see if we can find a common solution?
Why do we look at Fedora or Debian? We are _SUSE_. Let them follow us. BTW, ask OpenBSD people. There are too many cases when it's heard "Fedora, Fedora, Fedora, ...".

The names of users and groups which are created by a package should be prefixed with an underscore "_". This creates a safe namespace for the distribution and avoids collisions between system group and usernames which are created by packages and regular group and usernames.
