Enrique, Marc is correct, removing the user is not necessarily a good
idea.
The requirements of a purge of the package don't actually necessitate
this, we just need to clean up the files that were added. Users and
groups are a special case where we're even allowed to modify the system
state, and
From a security point of vue, removing a user isn't a good idea. There
could be files in the filesystem that are leftover with the mysql user
UID, and if the mysql user is deleted, the UID may be reassigned,
rendering those files visible to the new user.
