Nautilus Share does add this by default, by making you install libpam-smbpass if
it detects that you do not have Samba already, and requesting that you restart
your session. libpam-smbpass will then generate your samba user account with the
same username and password. If samba is already installed, it is assumed that
you have the technical knowhow to configure your system appropriately.

I'm marking this as invalid for nautilus-share, but if anyone has a better
solution, please reopen this bug by marking it as "New."

I'm also marking the samba task as invalid, because there's nothing wrong with
samba's operations with respect to this issue.
