No, you weren't able to log in with the value of the "User Name" column.
That maps to the "Name" column from KFWUSER and is just a way to identify
the real name of the person logging in.  The ID column in KFWUSER maps to
the "User ID" field in the user admin create user UI, and all CTAUTH calls
do a match on the value form ID, so that's always the key.
