Ah, of course. That makes sense.

Don't want to do that.

What about just having a separate file, say /etc/local_users that is
checked? Something like:

    local_user:
        driver = accept
        local_parts = lsearch;/etc/local_users
        check_local_user
        transport = LOCAL_DELIVERY
