It seems that this field should be filled when running update.php, and it should
be changed when the Renameuser extension changes someone's user name.

Removed 'schema-change' keyword. No patch attached that requires a schema change.

Adding back. Although there is no patch, the bug explicitly asks for a schema change. See also the description of the schema-change keyword.

Makes for a useless search on this keyword, then. Unless it is combined with "patch" and "need-review" keywords. At the moment 21 issues have keyword "schema-change".

Yeah, I guess that's true.

Restoring schema-change keyword.

php importTextFile.php's user=Maintenance_script will show up in
RecentChanges, but like Bug #17343, when one checks (the security
cameras at) Special:Log, it's like (the bandits took out the film) "I
didn't see anything, did you?". Also users are shown plenty of
worthless links in RecentChanges to "Maintenance script (Talk |block)
(Importing text file)".

I wonder what putting
+---------+--------------+
| user_id | user_name    |
+---------+--------------+
|       0 | Default User |
+---------+--------------+
into the user table would do, at least for Bug #17343.

Finished in r51997

Bug 17343 was supposed to be "fixed automatically" when this one was...
