I'll just not shoot anybody, but refer back to most of the arguments
about domains, and user account, and management, that has been made
about a billion times previously. I have nothing new to add above that
(apart from what I already added, which is that techdocs doesn't work as
well as we (or at least I) thought, and therefor making another approach
would be a good idea. It just comes naturally that doing said approach
along established policies is something I would advocate, but that's
just me)
