 I like the idea of using George for this.  There's nothing wrong with
 denying people's ssh connections.  Also, we could make public user

+I'm fine with closing this bug, unless we want to set up the limited

+I envision a script you'd invoke like:
+
+       root@george# addmsuser foo 'Foo T. Bar <foo@example.org>'
+
+Which would create the `foo` account, populate
+`~foo/.config/monkeysphere/authorized_user_ids`, make a note in a log
+someplace, and send a welcome letter.
