Rename is still possible, similar to what we have now, but just on a global 
level. So no, they are not stuck forever with it, of course. 

One thing to note is the technical limitation on # of edits. If account has too 
many edits, he may not be able to get it renamed further. How will that be 
managed? I guess James will address this issue, as he said he'll look through 
the rename list (make a one-time offer etc? ) .
