Hi!

That only works half.

I have one failure symptom when doing it this way: keyboard layout.

We have german keyboards which perfectly works when only using the
"Default User" locally. But when copying that on the profile share and
using it as a skeleton for a new user the keyboard layout is set to
english after login.
And that's the only thing that is visible right now. I do not know what
else is messed up.
My conclusion: "Default User" has to be local on the machine.
