[Serusers] Modify SER via serctl or DB?

[Nick Hoffman]

Hi guys, I'm going to be writing a script to make modifications to SER (Eg: 
add/modify/delete users/aliases, etc). I'm wondering whether it's "better" 
to
    1) use /usr/sbin/serctl
    or
    2) directly modify the MySQL SER database

What advantages/disadvantages are there for each method? Are there any 
reasons why it's not advisable to directly modify the MySQL SER database 
to accomplish tasks such as adding a user?

Thanks for your input!
