Good question. Unfortunately, I'm not responding to answer it, but to add my own desparate plea for advice.

I have a totally custom forum that I wrote myself. It uses MySQL only to store membership data and I need to write a custom script to transfer accounts (don't care about threads).

As of now, my plan is similar to your's. I'm going to hack the user.php script which is called by the right hand frame loaded when you select Users->Add New User from the admin area. I'm hoping someone will stop me if there's an easier way.

Seems to be little documentation targeted to people who are familiar with PHP/SQL for this forum software.
