Boot.initrd.systemd.tmpfiles does not create directories when user attribute is set

boot.initrd.systemd.tmpfiles will create directories owned by root as expected when boot.initrd.systemd.tmpfiles.settings.<config-name>.<path>.<tmpfiles-type>.user is not specified in the configuration. However, setting boot.initrd.systemd.tmpfiles.settings....user to my regular user so that the created directory will be owned by that user results in no directory being created. This creates a directory owned by root: boot.initrd.systemd.tmpfiles.settings."persist" = { "/sysroot/user/foo"...
