What is the purpose of the 'u' column in admin.db? #86

The u column in the admin database is populated with the name of the script creating the database:

https://github.com/globalwordnet/OMW/blob/7bd65ed693466a10f94814fbd99b06c43d6b7033/scripts/load-admin-users.py#L25

But the schema says it should be an integer value:

https://github.com/globalwordnet/OMW/blob/7bd65ed693466a10f94814fbd99b06c43d6b7033/omw/schemas/admin.sql#L19

It seems the meaning of this column may have drifted over time. What is the intended value and what is it used for? (one problem with one- and two-letter column names is that GitHub won't show search results in the code)
