I think I did

I have this field in my user record

(password " " ab")

the space " " is the password (with my defective keyboard anything else is
unreasonable) and "ab" is the "seed" (I'll be damned if I now what it is)

This allows my VMs to have my user already configured when I run them for
the first time

Too bad I still can't have my keyboard layout set in my desktop
environments because Xorg roars at me when I touch its configuration :-/
