IMHO, The cleanest way to do it is doing it in a dedicated module. The danger of hacking Xoop's user table is that is locks you into that XOOPS version, especially if a new version is released (security fix for example) then you will have to be very carefull when upgrading.
I totally agree with this. For me though, I had no other choice but to modify the xoops_user table. Now, if I want to upgrade the system, I will just simply backup that table and be done with it. Its not a hard task, but like McNaz said, its one that needs careful attention. I modified my xoops_user table highly, and to lose it would be devistating to my site. Daily backups, two words of advise.
