(Get the code!)
I noticed that the same happens when you try to add a user with an existing uid. The tool even claims that the new user's home directory is added. On the other hand, at least the initially proposed uid is not 0.
Why not give a *warning* (not error) message when a duplicate uid is given in the tool, and if user confirms, run useradd and groupadd with the -o option.
