(Get the code!)
My personal account at home is an old Mandrake one (some seven years old) with UID=501 and I have always kept it this way because thousands of files and dirs on my external disks has this owner and I am too lazy to chown all of them, but I'm used to manually change my user's id in /etc/passwd and /etc/login.defs before every new sys installation. If GDM used login.defs parameters, those small changes above will do all the job for me.
Thanks.
