Well many (most?) people use autofs to mount home directories. In my
systems since my home is an nfs4 automount with krb5 you need to start
ntpd,rpcidmapd,rpcgssd,autofs before you can see /home. I know many
places that have their home directories under /afs as well.

Also keep in mind that a home directory can be anywhere (/usr/people
for example will still be in use in many places I suspect) and you'll
also find links like /home -> /foo/bar where /foo/bar is automounted.

Simply checking fstab/auto.master isn't going to tell you anything about
where the home directories are. Of course as long as the early startup
can be disabled easily it isn't a problem.
