I have never used preseeding so I can't help you on that.

However I have tested boot time hooks on a number of occasions. Up to
version 3.0~40a if I remember correctly.

 I would use it like this:

Add your adduser hook prefixed by a number higher than 118 (but do not use
999) and add it to *config/includes.chroot/lib/live/config/

Something similar to this:
*

    $ cat > 120-adduser << EOF

         #!/bin/bash

         echo

         echo "live-config hook: adduser"

         adduser user group

       EOF

*
It is not necessary to specify any boot parameter.
