Hmm. Looks like the home directory owner is kept as root, or did I miss 
something? :) There's actually mkdir_parents() function which does 
pretty much what your create_directories() does.

It should also work with multiple uids so that directories up until the 
home directory would be owned by root (or configurable?). The home 
directory itself should have user's uid/gid as owner/group.

Other than that it's good :)
