The '''user''' form field type provides a modal select box of users.

* '''type''' (mandatory) must be ''user''.
* '''name''' (mandatory) is the unique name of the field. This must match the name of the query results column that contains the values that will be shown to the user in the drop-down list, unless a different name is specified in the ''value_field'' attribute.
* '''label''' (mandatory) (translatable) is the descriptive title of the field.
* '''description''' (optional) (translatable) is text that will be shown as a tooltip when the user moves the mouse over the drop-down box.

Example XML parameter definition:
<field name="title" type="user" label="Select a user" />
