Perhaps you had created the user before installing the package?  
Was this a fresh F8 install or an upgrade?  It looks like the hsqldb
package prior to 1.80.1-1jpp_2fc (back in October 2005) didn't create
the hsqldb user with a reserved uid (which would be a uid lower than
500).

The current rpm should remove the user when the package is removed, so
a simple "fix" should be just remove the package and then install it
again so the user is created with a lower uid (hardcoded to uid 96
now).

At least you now know why it's showing up in the login user list.  :)
