for the user manipulation php-side you can create a new user class to extend the core user class.
this is part of something i have done to correct the avatar location issue with newer versions of xoops
I added your var in there so you could try it out of the box. Hopefully.

If you need new fields I would suggest creating a new table and store them in there seperatelly from xoops core db tables.
Then extend the class to store the extra values with a new method in it.
Make that a small module (just for the sake of neatness) or implement it in your module, and you dont have to worry about messing with the core :) hope it helps
