- (my current approach) add call to AuthPlugin::setCanonicalName in
User::newFromName. I coded this last night, and it seems to work pretty well, but does require a patch.
Open up an enhancement on bugzilla and post this patch. :)
(Patches don't generally survive the mailing list filters. We've got most attachments disabled due to a few past incidences with virus attachments getting through.)
I'm assuming that getting a patch included in the mainline 1.5 release is pretty tough at this point, which is fine. I'm hoping to target a patch for the release after, if we agree that one is needed for clean integration. In the meantime, I'll work around the issue for 1.5.
If it's small, to the point, non-invasive, and bug-free then yes I'd love to see it in.
