=E2=80=98guix pack -f docker=E2=80=99 currently creates an image without
/etc/{passwd,group,shadow}.

It=E2=80=99s OK most of the time, but again it looks like a gratuitous anno=
yance
for those cases where having them around matters (that=E2=80=99s also the r=
eason
why guix-daemon creates them.)

Unless there are objections, I=E2=80=99d like to create these with just the
=E2=80=9Croot=E2=80=9D and =E2=80=9Cnobody=E2=80=9D accounts.  Or should we=
 have a regular unprivileged
account?  But then what should its UID be?
