[dev] The Identity Name and the User name may be inverted.

[Edwin Culp]

IMO, it's not intuitive, but I must agree Atif's logic.  After you know what is
really
happening, it doesn't annoy you anymore.  Many may never even notice:-)

BTW, I have certainly become attached to it.  It is a GREAT feature.  Thanks!

| But you are right: This is somehow irritating. I'm not clear what would be

| identity name. I think the email address is important as well. But how can we
| 
| display it to make sure that it's not misunderstandable. 
| What about: Emailaddress (Identity) ?
