Well, here's the thing: I reall don't think the boundary should be a user configuration thing. It should be a vendor configuration thing. And thus you shouldn't tell your users about how to configure it at all. I think communicating how to select the users that get split up journals makes a lot of sense, but not how to shift the boundary in general. And that's kinda the key of the issue here... I am still convinced that adding a range command to sysusers and a SplitUserRange= setting to journald is the right way to go...
