The [[ https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Actor_table | actor table ]] is live on Toolforge replicas, and it appears the foreign keys (e.g. `rev_actor`) are populated.
The effort involved here is to update our queries to join on `actor` when we need to filter by username, or use join decomposition, so that we are no longer referencing `rev_user_text`, `rev_user`, `log_user_text`, `log_user`, etc.
