I can see your point about allowing custom links, but I can see value in
allowing the inclusion of real name AND username (maybe just because that's
what I do, I don't know how common it is).

An alternative would be to have two check boxes, the first next to a text-entry
field for real name, the second would use your username.

If neither option was checked, or the real name option was checked but the text
field was blank then an error would occur.

If only the real name option was checked and a real name supplied, that name
with a link to the userpage would be used as now.

If only the username option was checked, then that name with a link to the
userpage would be used.

If both options were checked, then "Real name ([[user:username|username]])"
would be used.

I haven't a clue how easy to implement this would be though.
