Business requirement:

As IT Administrator, I would like to see user's "Last Login Date/Time" in the User list.

To implement this feature I would just add flowfield (based on "Session Event" table) to User table . But there's one issue

User table cannot be extended since it is system table (Compiler Error AL0525)

In BC14 C/AL, I could easily make this change. What would be the alternative now?

You could create a function instead and use that as source for a new page field.

I could, but then user won't be able to sort by the field

As this is a rather old question, I'll close it.

Also, this isn't the best place to ask questions. Try posting your question to the following resources instead:
