   > @klesh @Startrekzky What is the business value in revealing a username 
associated with a secure token and displaying it on the UI in the first place? 
Is backend going to discern username information from the token and provide 
that information in the connection object for each token? Is username going to 
be present in the API test response only? GitHub automatically emails users 
regarding expired tokens or tokens that are about to expire.
   
   No, it has nothing to do with the BE.
   
   Yes, the `username` is going to be present in API test response only.
   
   Email notification for github token, maybe, I'm not sure. But it has nothing 
to do with the design AFAIK, from what I learned from @yumengwang03, it is for 
the user who has multiple tokens from different colleagues, so the user could 
identify which ones are expired, and reach out to the owner easily, plus, the 
user can find out if there are duplicate `username` from these seemingly 
different tokens, and we can also check that for them as well.
