You haven't said anything about how users are managed? If you want to add a user: compose new image and push? Remove a user , compose a new image and push? Password expire. .. well you get the idea.

I've seen user rpms.
How do you do it.
I use SaltStack in a masterless minion configuration. I build a base image with a BASH script that has enough of the VM that SaltStack can take over and do the rest. Here is the SaltStack documentation to manage users. < https://docs.saltstack.com/en/latest/ref/states/all/salt.states.user.html>
I'm also working on eliminating the need to create a custom ISO image from which I generate the VM by using Packer <https://www.packer.io/> with the SaltStack provider. That will give make it easier for me to have one configuration file and a common set of Salt states from which I can target various virtualization environments - VirtualBox, VMWare, Hyper-V, Amazon EC2, Azure, OpenStack, etc.
