Don't mix different problems. Creating an user just after deleting it
will currently fail because his home folder has not been removed.
Another problem, that was fixed in Karmic, is that the group was not
removed. I'm trying to fix that with deluser, else we'll do this (and
the first problem) ourselves in the next release cycle.

Now, the present report is about /tmp. I don't think we can nor should
do anything about that. As Sebastien said, tools should remove their
temporary dirs on logout. How do you want users-admin to guess what dirs
it should remove? And even if we had to do this, it would be better in
deluser than users-admin.

The use case is quite limited, anyways. Rebooting will fix that.
