and so the user doesn't know why setting it in
SitePreferences does not work.
additionally, it might be nice to change the default viewtemplate to use another variable - so when it comes time to customise that, the admin does not need to touch every topic (ie have VIEW_TEMPLATE=%NEWUSERVIEWTEMPLATE%) - that would be useful for the default (and
UserInfoContrib) user stuff too..

True, a docu error. The default template makes use of the normal auto templating mechanism by means of the UserForm data form. The other ldap example comes with a rudimentary example view template coded into the NewLdapUserTemplate. I don't think an extra indirection using yet another preference variable NEWUSERVIEWTEMPLATE adds any value here.
It would be cool if Foswiki had excellent user profile pages out of the box. But that's out of scope for this plugin.
