 Description   

mysqlslap promises to use the current user to connect to the server unless it was specified in options, but it doesn't happen, it prints no default value in help and connects as root instead,

$ bin/mysqlslap --help | grep user
 
  -u, --user=name     User for login if not current user.
 
user                                  (No default value)

I suppose the easiest would be to change the help text.
