What's the case for disallowing those at all? names starting with a
digit _are_ valid usernames.

It is an issue with systemd (and, to a different extent, shadow), we
shouldn't deviate further from the standard because of that.

Is this at all an issue in Devuan, given that we have no systemd? I
think the fix would be more appropriate as a patch to shadow, so that
the behaviour is consistent (e.g. usernames with dots and dashes or,
yes, starting with a digit allowed).

(sorry, had only replied to dev)
