Rather than trying to tear apart a database system that was carefully
designed with "user" as a word with meaning to the system, is there any
reason why you can't use a slightly different name for your table?  I tried
the same thing once, by the way, and when I realized I couldn't name my
table "user", I called it "users" - after all, there will be more than one
user! :-)  Other ideas are "usr", "db_user" (replace "db" with something
meaningful to you), "user_info", etc.

Just a thought.
