Description
When you change your username using the UserPreferences page, Moin still has the old username in its user cache, so you can still log in using it.
Steps to reproduce
Change your username via the UserPreferences page.
- Log out.
- Log in using your old username, and it'll still work and show you your new username.

Workaround
If you manually erase the user cache after a change like this, then it doesn't happen.
Discussion
Detect the event of username change in userform.py, delete or recreate the user cache file.
I do not believe that the user should be able to change their user name. I think the behavior should be to notify the user that they may not create an account while logged in. --PhilipNeustrom
This is not about creating additional accounts, but about modifying an existing one. -- ThomasWaldmann 2005-11-29 22:06:59
