Part of the trick is automating the folder creating. The other is managing the
user permissions. As an example if a user logged in as "user1" and was directed
to http://www.thesite.com/user1, you want to be sure they can't just key in
http://www.thesite.com/user2 to get administrative access to user2. If you
already have that sorted out though, your idea sounds like a reasonable one to
work with.
