IMO, you should not use the model directly in your applications. The
management REST API gives you full access to security metadata. Use
that. Plus, in the very near future (after beta-1 release) we'll be
implementing a cache and if you are modifying data directly, there will
be possibilities of this cache using stale data.

At some point we'll add a Java and REST api's for user

example user created, user deleted, etc).
In the mean time I don't see any issues with using keycloak-model-jpa directly,
especially not for read only. This API will quite likely change between versions, and we
won't support any backwards compatibility. The "official" user management
API once it's ready will be more stable, but I'm not sure when we'll have time
to implement that.
