Deprecate clear domain names as home directory
Since plesk is storing each vhost as clear domain name, every user wit shell access is able to see which domains/customers are on this host, eg. with > getenv passwd
We know we can chroot the user but chroot is NOT a security feature and makes trouble with applications the user might expect (or the environment these applications expect) - and there is still a way to break out from the environment or new ways get discovered. Much afford for nothing in the end.
We do not want to put customers in containers, jails whatsoever to restrict the user access if there is an easy solution to mask user home directories so nobody is able to examine them.
Or add LDAP support at system level so home directories can be stored and queried from there.

This is a valid request, so we'll look into it. There is no ETA at the moment, but we would really appreciate you voting for this request so that we can accurately assess its popularity relative to other features.
Thanks in advance!
