Description Daniel Tröder

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #41739 +++

------------------------

The ucsschool.lib.models.user.User class has various attributes (of type ucsschool.lib.models.attributes.Attribute) that are mapped to users/user UDM properties when opening/saving/modifying.

The ucsschool.importer.models.import_user.ImportUser class has an attribute 'udm_properties' that is a Python dictionary. Its keys must be the names of users/user UDM properties. When saving/modifying their values are stored in the ImportUsers UDM object.

When both attributes could be used (e.g. User.email and ImportUser.udm_properties["mailPrimaryAddress"] or User.firstname and ImportUser.udm_properties["firstname"]) then the ucsschool.libs must be used, and the key must not exist in udm_properties. Otherwise data will be lost upon either creation or modification!
