To use RENAME USER, you must have the global CREATE USER privilege or
the UPDATE privilege for the mysql database. When the read_only system
variable is enabled, RENAME USER additionally requires the SUPER
privilege.
If you specify only the user name part of the account name, a host name
part of '%' is used.
RENAME USER causes the privileges held by the old user to be those held
by the new user. However, RENAME USER does not automatically drop or
invalidate databases or objects within them that the old user created.
This includes stored programs or views for which the DEFINER attribute
names the old user. Attempts to access such objects may produce an
error if they execute in definer security context. (For information
about security context, see
