--- Comment #1 from Liangent <[email protected]> ---
Brion mentioned in bug 3279 that "the actual block works based on the user ID
number" but it seems not the case (anymore?).

Searching for ipb_user in Block.php returns only one usage, in the function to
insert new block rows.

Actually there're already reports from users saying that they're accidentially
blocked, and the real cause is that they usurped an originally blocked user
name in the past, and ipblocks table still stores the user name having been
usurped because of (the broken-in-the-past and already-fixed) RenameUser
extension.
