Or rename the users themselves. This backs onto the revoke idea. If only
the DBA knows the new names then the privileges stay intact and the old
usernames could be restored with a reversal script when the db can be
accessed again. Applications will simply get an access denied at connection
time. No
the permissions are in the "mysql" database
so there are two possibilites
* mysql is not interested and do not touch them at all
means they are still for the old names and work after
rename beack as before
* mysql does magic and update the permission-tables
i bet case one will happen

Would this keep permissions intact? I need something that would make it
