I think authtest might also be good as a generic configuration tool
as it delivers name, home directory, uid and gid of a given user.
(Suppose a configure script takes an option like [EMAIL PROTECTED]
for installing some data and scripts into a user directory; e.g. a mail robot.) Re-packaging may be an occasion to review the permissions required to run it.

No special permissions are needed for authtest. If it has permissions to connect to the filesystem socket, it's good to go.
