Need to get back to userkey = lowercase username

[Alain Reding]

Dear Atlassian community,

I recently migrated from Jira 7.3.12 to 8.5.4 to find out the userkey generation procedure has changed. Need to get back to the situation where the userkey for new users equals the username. The username does not contain any real name but an anonimous user identifier.

I tried the dark feature 'com.atlassian.jira.user.dbIdBasedKeyGenerationStrategy.disable' , but it did not make any change to the way userkeys are handled.

Any way I can do that?

Thanks a lot for your support.
