Thanks for the info. Sounds none too convenient. I just realized I
could just list the /Users directory and filter out the Shared entry.
Granted, someone could have created a folder there that isn't really a
valid user, but seems like an OK 95% solution. :-)
users = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] directoryContentsAtPath:@"/
Users/"];
Fails spectacularly in some networked environments, though - user home
directories aren't necessarily in /Users.
