New submission from Ned Deily:

At the PyCon Development sprints, I have helped two users with similar 
problems: each had an older bugs.python.org username, then managed to 
mistakenly create a second usename with the same email address as the older 
one, and then tried to reset the password of the first username but failed 
because the reset email was associated with the second, newer username.  In 
both cases, we ended up having to manually change the email address (and other 
fields) of the second username using the admin interface.  I have not tried to 
reproduce creating two such usernames with the same email address (and I didn't 
see any obvious open issues about this on the tracker) but it seems like that 
behavior should be prohibited.
