That would just be a matter of creating a user
interface (i.e. a form) to handle the user input, and
issuing appropriate SQL commands.  Maybe the best way,
to preserve security, would be to handle the user
setup via a server function, with appropriate rights
granted to application administrators, who otherwise
are not database superusers.  That would reduce the
opportunity for your backend setup to be compromised
by a user.
