No distribution I checked (Arch, Debian, Fedora/RH) has a static UID/GID
for dev-util/jenkins-bin. Upstream failed multiple times with chosen
UID/GID in documentation:
https://github.com/jenkinsci/docker/issues/112
https://github.com/jenkinsci/docker/pull/153
https://github.com/jenkinsci/docker/issues/154
https://github.com/jenkinsci/docker/issues/165
https://github.com/jenkinsci/docker/issues/177
https://github.com/jenkinsci/docker/issues/277
FreeBSD has picked UID/GID 818 which I also want to use.
500...999 is currently marked as "reserved" but this shouldn't block
this assignment, should it?
Therefore I am requesting uid and gid 818, both named "jenkins", for
dev-util/jenkins-bin.

...could you please explain why? ;)
For me, the 500...999 block looks arbitrary.
Check Gentoo's /etc/login.defs, 101-999 is valid for us. Why is
500...999 marked as "reserved"?! Please tell me I am missing something
and not that it was added because in the past, other distribution
started with 500 for normal users...
If we don't pick a number (which should be available) used somewhere
else, why do we care at all about "others"?
