If you dump all databases, you're also dumping the mysql.user
table, which is where privileges and login information for the other
databases is stored. So as long as the MySQL versions are the same
(or comparable) on the original host and target host if you're using
password hashing, or if everything is in plain text, you should be
just fine.
