OwnClound: Rename login not possible?

I would like to rename a login in owncloud.

According to this issue it is to possible at the moment:

https://github.com/owncloud/core/issues/1333

It is 100% ok if it is not possible via web GUI.

But I guess it is possible with shell and sql.

Can someone explain how to do it?

My use case:

I have uploaded a huge directory to the wrong account. Uploading again would take several days.

work around

A different solution would be do move the data from one account to an other.

Answer

No, renaming the user is not possible as the developer of the system told multiple times on the linked page. They consider the username an immutable ID.

Moving the data from one user to another would be a different question.
