That's a job for a %pre RPM script, not a service. Create the user and
put the user in the group when the package is installed.

Hardcode it. It does not make much sense to configure something, or
use config file indirections for stuff that does not need to be
changed anyway.
That will work for the user, however, I was also going to allow for
additional options from the sysconfig file, but $OPTIONS wasn't being
expand either.
