If memory serves me correctly this was on purpose where the thinking 5
years ago was that users would be imported on first login, then managed
from Keycloak after that. That is not always the case though and we should
have some way of controlling if users updated on subsequent logins and
perhaps also be able to fine-tune what is updated.
