It's up to App to create what ever they need (directory; config files,
...) at the first run.

Now, I do not 'banned' platforms to use hooks to execute special code at
user creation or deletion. That is a platform decision and possible side
effect their responsibility.

Well, it never was specifically third-party or platform applications, but about RPMs in general installing hook scripts.

For example gSSO currently stores user credential databases in /var/db/gsignond (in per-user directories) because those need to be inaccessible to the user / apps he runs under his account. If we would have the filesystem encryption (and TEE framework), data would be stored encrypted with user-specific key. So now when a user is deleted, his credentials remain in plaintext...
