This actually isn't the case.  There are key portions of the DAO that are
specifying classes instead of interfaces and are therefore impossible to
replace with a local version that does not inherit from the OSUser classes.
This is a very severe limitation.  They are *almost* correct, and I am
running a forked version locally that does allow us to replace the DAOs.  Our
deployment doesn't use the OSUser base classes for entity management.

The same error used to exist in PropertySet, but it's taken care of now.
