Maybe have adduser prompt when using --unlock (and without -s) whether
to reset the shell to the default?  (just #2, but more explicit)

Then again a single colon-separated file to check *before* selecting
the default isn't a ton of added complexity.  

Contrary to the behavior of usermod(8), I personally think adding the
additional barrier to access is a feature.
