What's the rationale for adding these?

My intent is for pseudo to provide the absolute minimum required for the 
default fs-perms.txt, not to attempt to provide everything that's in 
base-passwd.  If you override fs-perms.txt somehow and need those extra 
groups in early build stages, I think the right approach is to also 
provide your own fallback-group and fallback-passwd at the same time.

If too much gets added to these fallback specifications, we're back in 
the same position of getting target files that don't match the 
configuration used during build/packaging.  In most cases, adding 
DEPENDS += "base-passwd" is going to be the right approach to things not 
being in the fallback files.
