    Description

      When importing authors, mentions and any reference to users, it would be needed to be able to provide a mapping file to convert the users to an already existing account in XWiki.

      The file would be stored on the server and contain fields like:

      currentvalue1=newvalue1
      currentvalue2=newvalue2
      currentvalue3=newvalue3
      currentvalue4=newvalue4

      In the case of a Confluence import this would be run before or after the user conversion already being done.

      For example currently a user mention or page author is stored as XWiki.ludovic@xwiki_com
      If the file contains

      ludovic@xwiki_com=ldubost

      Then the mention should be

      XWiki.ldubost

      This task is also related to CONFLUENCE-73 as authors and mentions should be xwiki:XWiki.ldubost in the end.
