Current evaluation

Triaged enhancement for declarative user and group creation, likely through an overlay plugin; the proposed design remains under discussion and is not implemented.

Suggested action: keep open

Reason: The request is valid and triaged: the body says users are currently added with override-overlay, and maintainer lengau proposed a plugin that creates users and groups in a part's overlay. The current plugin registry contains no such plugin, so this should remain open, though the exact schema and collision or idempotency semantics still need definition.
