so I don't overlook anything if I presume that user management currently

Nope, it doesn't.

some fossil command like
fossil adduser {basic configuration options go here} user1, user2, ...

It's not quite that easy - you have to mangle one user at a time, and
user creation is it's own command.

would be nice to have. fine-tuning might be delegated to the webinterface
but
the basic things (adding admin users, development users etc) should be
possible otherwise.

I'd say it is. It could be better, but it's there. I generally wind up
running a shell loop:

for u in $DEVS ADMINS $READERS
do
  # create user name from company mail address, password is PW<name>.
  fs new $u $u...@company.com PW$u -R $REPO
done

for dev in $DEVS
do
  # Set up developers
  fs cap $dev v -R $REPO
done

Setting up new users in mass doesn't make a lot of sense - you
probably want to set contact information and passwords separately
anyway. Setting permissions (capabilities) for a group would be a nice
enhancement.
