my reason for this is that i plan to use perdition to migrate a large
number of users from one server to another (or perhaps multiple servers)
over a period of time. it feels like using a real db will be safer than
updating a text file, as well as better performance.

but, my instincts may be all wrong. i'll take a look at the regex code
to see if that might work well enough.
