Hello,

This top-down policy was requested some years ago in order to get more
freedom in the future for the users / groups defined by distributions.

Currently, base-passwd reserves IDs 0-100, but this is serious restriction
that will have to be handled in the future.

When user management tools use the range 100-1000 bottom up, it is not
possible to extend this 0-100 range reserved by distributions.

So I do not think this should be changed.
