Of course you could you can have the account of said person execute a script on login (place execution of script into their .profile) but again, why can't they just use the tools in place?
Maybe if you want things to be that easy you could just install webmin and have them web-gui their way to adding/modding/deleting users... have you been exposed to webmin?

The exact reason why i'm wanting to make this simple is because the persons I may offload this to have zero unix experience and have enough problems using windows let alone OpenBSD. I'm the
only computer guy at the company, my plan is rather than it constantly being customer -> account handler -> me I want the account handlers able to create users. Asking people who have problems using windows to use the command line is asking for trouble.
Yes, i've used webmin quite a bit on Linux. But the FTP machine is a production server and frankly I don't trust it because of its security history.
Anyway, i'm wanting to keep to the official packages and keep the ftp server installation as minimal as possible for maintenance and security reasons. (webmin isn't an official package)
