I think it's not a bad Idea to have even the default system
users in ports/GIDs ports/UIDs.

For example the following predefined groups are at the moment
not in ports/GIDs
- operator
- mail

But they should go in with this lines to support bacula/postfix/clamav
- operator:*:5:bacula
- mail:*:6:clamav,postfix
