Discard what I wrote, I would take Sergei's word over mine.

I'm pretty sure, or at least I thought that MariaDB/MySQL both used the same scheme of identifying system users as differentiated from regular users via another attribute besides the name string itself. In MSSQL if you execute:

USE Master
select * from sys.dm_exec_sessions

All users with a session_id ≤ 50 is a system login.

The "system user" identifies internal tasks spawned by the server. See here...

Never tried to create a user called this so no idea if it's reserved... but not really a good idea anyway.

Subject: [Maria-discuss] “system user” in SHOW PROCESSLIST

Hi all,

        https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/show-processlist/

        ^^ The above doesn’t describe “system user” in the result of SHOW PROCESSLIST, but that’s what I observe in 10.2.21.

        What is the meaning of “system user” in the output of this command? Is there a list of these “special” values for the User column? Are these reserved names (i.e., no DB user should be named “system user”)?

        Thank you!

-FG
