Earlier versions of this document used ''normal user name'' to

The term "authorization identifier" is used in the standard to cover
both "user identifier" and "role name", cf. section 5.4:
<authorization identifier> ::=
<role name>
| <user identifier>
Would is perhaps be better to reserve the more generic term
"authorization identifer" to those cases when either a user or a role
meant, and rather user "user identifier" when talking about users
only?
Probably, though Derby's documentation uses 'authorization identifier'
in a somewhat different way.

In the wiki page I was using authorization identifier more in line with
the Derby docs.
