It looks like the behavior of the `user_updated` event was changed in

[https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/519b70ea4692834638e4b95c92b81a2160621681](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/519b70ea4692834638e4b95c92b81a2160621681)

which triggers as long as a column on the user is changed. @zogstrip Do we need all the columns to trigger the event? If not I’ll add a a filter that checks the columns which have changed against the `UserUpdated::OPTION_ATTR` constant.
