It displays the warning, puts the new username ("My username") in the box, then you have to retype your password (twice), then press enter to confirm.
Would it be possible to validate the username while it is being typed and show some help text right there. Something along the lines of `User names are capitalized and can't have double spaces, your username "prateek saxena" should be changed to "Prateek Saxena"`, and not allow the user to submit the form until they've made this change.
Would that make sense?

But if they just hit some sort of confirmation at the end, that would avoid forcing them change it themselves which might be a bit annoying if they don't actually care.
Dunno that it'd necessarily matter, though. Validation while typing would make sense here, though.
