Remember SQL is quite a powerful "language" and your query simply has to
return the fields, nobody says that it only needs do a simple SELECT
with no functions... If you can use SQL to replace() your magic
characters (which don't need to be %H of course) then you can do this
bit yourself?
Things like this can be useful in your migration perhaps? Remember in
any case that you don't need to move all users at once, eg when
migrating between servers you can disable logins for a user, move the
directory, update the DB, re-enable logins on a one by one basis?
Good luck
