Check the other partition for the user name. Create the new user with the same pointer (uuid, etc) to the user’s sqlite file, delete the old user in the other partition. Simple user name changed. Not really that complex to be honest. (After thinking this through I’m probably going to suggest us changing to sqlite at work…)

2 reasons I can think of right off of the top of my head are:

- validation (preventing bad actors, or just bad input)

- calls to external services
