 * array( 'doMigrateUserOptions' ),
 * Already done by Roan for Usability
 * array( 'dropField', 'user',        'user_options', 'patch-drop-user_options.sql' ),
 * Would need to be done post deployment (or some changes merged out of 1.19 into 1.18wmf1 to save errors where it is sparsely used
 * Should be postponed to 1.20 deployment
 * array( 'addField', 'revision',     'rev_sha1',         'patch-rev_sha1.sql' ),
