Set a new package:
MySQL - 0
Email - 1 (is created by default, you can not delete it)
PHP - NO
PERL - NO
CGI - NO
FORWARDERS - NO
etc....
as domain use a fake on, or ... username.local
It would be simplest way, at least I see it so.

Much easier if you're comfortable at a root shell:
This should give you a username you can use with hostname for ftp login, and directory at [/i]/home/USERNAME[/i].
You can change the home directory at the useradd command (see man useradd or by simply editing the /etc/passwd file. If you do the latter, then no need to even restart anything; just make sure the path exists and when done you can simply delete the /home/USERNAME directory.

Isn't PAM authentication disabled in default ProFTPd configuration? I guess, it is.

Well yes as i know, but you should use ssh port to connect using sftp protocol and would work
