Why do you want to do that?
It's not possible in a safe fashion, but should be possible to switch it manually in the database( at your own risk of course..).

André,

Yes, I know it's a risky buisness but I don't see the exact impact of such manipulations.

I need to import 500 new users.
So I will create 500 unic, so no rellay readable, ID : Xw2Mpk

The idea is to allow users to use there own prefered ID like everybody has.

The new users who will registered will do it the normal way which the checking for already existing ID + PASS.

I was asking to myself if that control can't be use while ID changes.
