 While this might look like it works in only handles a subset of common
 case issues and doesn't really resolve the underlying issue.

 We have a lot of tables and a lot of data - there have been a lot of
 accounts created over time on WP.org for the forums and we need to do this
 in a careful and reliable manner.

 This is not the only manifestation of the issue and we need to work
 carefully to resolve them all - hopefully that will happen soon.
