Hi,

is there any correct way to add a user and set his user_attr through a
pkg manifest user action?
I see that default user_attr is setup via SUNWcs directly delivering the
file, e.g. manifest for netadm
only add the user/group but does not set up rbac.

I need it during installation of LightDM package, that will create the
lightdm user and run login manager
with that user. That user also need to have shutdown authorization.
I don't think it's nice to have an svc for this....

Take a look at zfs-auto-snapshot package (i.e. the original scripts)
as an inspirational example? Possibly the modern time-slider also
has the same logic - to deliver indeed an SMF service to create the
user account with privileges to create/delete snapshots. You might
want to create a self-destructing or at least a self-disabling SMF
service, which would no longer run after a successful initialization.

But regarding your with for no-service approach, this is not exactly
a solution you seek... so I'd be interested to know alternatives too ;)
