+ see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiUserManagement for context
  
  Please provide the directories /etc/skel/private (rwx------) and
  /etc/skel/incoming with appropriate permissions.
  
  In the user private group scheme used in debian/ubuntu the homedirs are
  created with permissions allowing the users to share and access files in
  each others home directories.
  
  These two directories will provide the users with a private space and a
  possibility give and receive files to/from other users.
