And no hope it'll be implemented ever?

I guess a generic implementation could be added:

passdb {

overridden by passdb entries

extra_fields_defaults = uid=1000 gid=1000

these override the passdb entries

extra_fields_overrides = home=/home/%u }

And the same for userdb. Although I don't really like those setting names. Wonder if there are some better ones.
