I started off manually creating user/group creation scripts for
Afterpkg, looking a bit like this:
https://github.com/bifferos/afterpkg/blob/master/scripts/system/mongodb/before.sh
But then I realised it's much better to just auto-generate them, using
that file as a starting point.
It's going to save a lot of boiler-plate code.

cheers,
Biff.
