--- Comment #1 from Liangent <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Dan Garry from comment #0) > This means the user ends up creating a username that is different > from what they typed in, which is suboptimal from a product perspective. Truncation is just a part of username normalization. Some other parts including making the first character uppercase and replace underscores with spaces. There're still other cases where "the user ends up creating a username that is different from what they typed in". And in practice, I saw some rename requests about 'I tried to create "foobar" but the system gave me "Foobar" but I still want "foobar".' and after rejection due to 'technical restrictions' they turn to say 'Then give me "FOOBAR" please'. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
