--- Comment #2 from Trijnstel <[email protected]> ---
I'll repeat my comment from another bug which was marked as a duplicate. (Imho
it's important that the search option in this global log will be the same as it
was in the local rename log (namely, old username with the User: prefix)

"While the global rename tool has been developed, it's not possible to search
in the global rename log
(https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Log/gblrename) on the old or new
account name, with or without the User: prefix. It's only possible to search on
the name of the global renamer/steward, but as the log will only grow more and
more it's impossible to do that when you don't know the name of the person who
acted.

It was possible for the "old" rename tool to search on the old account name.
See for example
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=renameuser&page=User%3A123chess456
(with the User: prefix). While the same is not working for the global rename
tool:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=gblrename&page=User%3AMinimaud";
