As we were saying yesterday on IRC, I'm also of the opinion that using my full name in places were I'm requested for my "username" (like Gerrit or RT) feels unnatural to me and may be one of the sources of this confusion. I can see the point that this is how MediaWiki does it, though, and matching other webapps with MediaWiki rather than SSH account names (= "uid" field) might be more consistent. Thoughts?<br>
