I checked the docs, and it turns out the new behavior is *already* 
described there, which is pretty weird:

In every call to api.php, the three values must either be passed as 
additional parameters, or as cookies within the request header. If any 
of the login values are given as part of the request, all cookie values 
are ignored. Please note that user name is passed in as '''lgname''', 
but returned as normalized '''lgusername'''. The first is used for 
authentication, whereas the second may be passed together with 
'''lgtoken''' and '''lguserid''' as tokens when making calls to other 
modules.
