I no longer use Ubuntu, and if you ask me I don't really care. And I couldn't guess from the original description whether the user files were removed or not.

When creating a new user, the keyring password is set to be the login password, so the password is never asked. It's been like that for ages, and it's not specific to re-creating users.
