Fedora has rejected the request for a static UID (see
https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/524#comment:16), and I haven't made
much progress on the SUSE front.  I did suggest everyone just do what
Debian does ;) but both Fedora and SUSE people pointed out that the 64K
range isn't safe to claim, what with not being specifically reserved.

I did make one small bit of progress - I've added the ceph user and
group to rpmlint on openSUSE Factory
(https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/303537) so at least the SUSE
build won't bitch if files specified in any of the packages are owned by
ceph:ceph.
