You shouldn't have to preseed the username when automating an oem ubiquity install

Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

Currently ubiquity stops on the user-setup page if the username isn't preseeded. This is different from how d-i works, and ubiquity should match that behavior by not stopping automation in this scenario.

Different how the d-i works on debian or on ubuntu? On debian/d-i you set up a root password, which ubuntu does not setup. Instead a root user account is created. On the oem-configs which I saw, OEMs preseed an admin/maintainance account.
