You can always do 'valid users = %D+%S, %S' if you want.
The problem is that you are confusing Windows terminology
with what winbindd is doing. Technical DOMAIN+foo is the
UNIX username. The fact that the homes share for that user
gets create without the DOMAIN prefix is an inconsistency.

I feel pretty strongly about not changing this after all
the 'winbind use default domain' pain I've suffered through
lately. The username will always have to be specified as
DOMAIN+foo (using whatever separator character you wish of
course).
