How is it useful? It ONLY makes people make IP edits mid-edit! You are logged
in when you click the edit button, and then you are logged off by the time you
click save unless you make sure you are logged in.

A notification is present in preferences if user pays attention to global
accounts  and that is only if user expects the account rename. If user didn't
even make the request it only appears like a random log off.

The logged out account and the renamed account has no relation aside from
sharing the name. Any bureaucrat or steward can log-off a user by renaming an
account on a wiki they never had edits.

This is particularly bad for those who want a SUL rename with multiple requests
on multiple wikis. B'crats do not rename accounts all at once. You will be
forced to log back in possibly multiple times an hour.
