Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools

Changing another user's UID in the users-admin GUI had no effect. 
After changing UID and closing, `getent passwd username' still shows original 
UID. 
Reopening "Users and Groups" confirms UID unchanged.

Changes from the CLI worked as expected.
