You are right.  I don't know whether you can tell, but I wrote my last note at 
just gone 5:00am my time this moring  after getting up to go an catch a 
flight to Germany for the day.  I spent the flight and the wait for the 
flight back going over the options in my mind and I NOW think it better to 
have proper home directories.

I do have to say, my motivation originally was more about not announcing to 
the world the internal structure of my filesystem rather than the limitation 
around creating lots of home directories, but part of the reasoning to myself 
today was that that probably doesn't really matter.
