--- Comment #7 from Ariel T. Glenn <[email protected]> ---
Folks with the dumps are probably only interested in names of users that made
at least one (non-hidden) edit.  That information is available by grabbing user
names and ids from the stubs dumps; while it might take a little work to grep
it out, reformat it and pass it to uniq it's not prohibitive.  Alternatively
you could could get it from the pages-logging xml file.  You could also get
them from the api in a very straightforward way, whether or not they've ever
made an edit:  http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=allusers

If I were going to produce these dumps, it wouldn't be a straight select,
because we'd have to check if the user name is hidden or whether the public is
permitted to see it.  This means a pho script and xml output and probably
batched queries for a measly two fields that are already available through
other means.  So I'm really leaning towards WONTFIX.
