Describe the Issue
Control 6.2.10 wants to ensure all users own their defined homedirectory and in order to shield system accounts from this there's a lower limit for the user's UID before it comes in effect.
However, the nobody user has a UID of 65534 and is considered 'interactive' by the task. And therefore it changes the owner of / to nobody:root.
Now I'm far from certain that is will be a problem for the normal system's functioning, but it feels wrong.
I'll whip up a PR in a min :)
