I know that you can create new user accounts by specifying them in the operating system configuration as indicated in the manual (https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/User-Accounts.html#User-Accounts). But I can't find answers to the following questions in the manual:

1. How do I delete users completely?
2. How can I create users that use different languages?

Regarding (1), when I remove users from the system configuration, their home directories are left behind, and this seems to create conflicts when I create a new user with the same credentials and home directory as a previous user. With conflicts I mean that I can't login with those kinds of users (even if I reset passwords with passwd).

Regarding (2), I mean users whose desktop interface should be displayed in a different language than the that of the locale specified in the operating system configuration file.
