I was just blinded by my being solid sure that $name was "ppp-user".
Nowever, now I'm in doubt whether $name should be "ppp".  The script
is named ppp-user and it PROVIDEs ppp-user, hence sysadmins can
rightfully assume that its rc.conf.d file is ppp-user, too.  Such
assumption will be broken since it is $name that is passed to
load_rc_config.  I think $name should be changed to "ppp-user" in
CURRENT.  This will introduce minor incompatibility, but also
eliminate a source of further confusion.
