Public bug reported:
When installing ubuntu you are asked to enter your full name ("what is
your name"). The installer then automatically fills out the field "what
name do you want to log in?" But if My name contains a foreign
character, the character is removed from the user name.
For instance when i enter:
"Bjørn Lastname"
the user name shows as "bjrn" and the name of the computer as "bjrn-
desktop"
Here I think the installer should either
-suggest "asbjørn" if it's technically possible to have foreign character in a
username
-or translate the "ø" to an "o". Similar rules should apply to other foreign
characters
