Home directory of root can be customized in Yocto. And what about other account?

I think this needs to be fixed in OE-Core/Yocto and it is not BSP related.
Please propose a patch for OE-Core that fixes it generically.

Yes, we also have this same issue in meta-fsl-arm and it is quite annoying.

Hopefully it can be fixed in oe-core.
