Although not having read the entire mail, you probably want to use
the option

  --allow-freeform-uid

     Disable all checks on the form of the user ID while generating a
     new one.  This option should only be used in very special
     environments as it does not ensure the de-facto standard format
     of user IDs.



Salam-Shalom,
