Yep, it’s just more options to create a pattern of home directories. As example 
getting the contents after @ in the User Principal Name and making a folder in 
/home only with users of this UPN. So we can avoid conflicts like this:

[email protected]
[email protected]
j...@i-will-migrate-to-red-hat-if-you-guys-implement-this.example.com

And so on.

The resulting generated home folders will be something like this:

/home/example.com/john
/home/whatever.example.com/john
/home/i-will-migrate-to-red-hat-if-you-guys-implement-this.example.com/john
