          *
-         * - We don't allow any dots (this would break chown syntax which permits dots as user/group name separator)
          * - We require that names fit into the appropriate utmp field
          * - We don't allow empty user names
          *
          * Note that other systems are even more restrictive, and don't permit underscores or uppercase characters.
+         *
+         * jsynacek: We now allow dots in user names. The checks are not exhaustive as user names like "..." are allowed
+         * and valid according to POSIX, but can't be created using useradd. However, ".user" can be created. Let's not
+         * complicate the code by adding additional checks for weird corner cases like these,  as they don't really matter here.
