** [tickets:#7916] Error when handling user-profile URLs of users with invalid
names.**

Some users have usernames that aren't valid as project shortnames (old
historical usernames probably). For these users, the Auth Provider can provide
an alternate user-project name for that user. When this happens, and you go to
the URL using the invalid name like `/u/foo_bar/` then you can get errors like
this:
