    Description

      Allow a single user, defined in the configuration file to override all other users defined in the system. I.e. something like

      security.authorization.recoveryUser=xyz
      security.authorization.recoveryUserPassword=abc
      security.authorization.recoveryUserRoles=readAnyDatabase
      

      If these options are set, the users defined in system.users are ignored.
