Description msh210 2011-06-10 15:11:11 UTC 
[Reposting this from OTRS ticket 2011061010000896.]

Someone who wants to log in to a project using another project's username can't (of course), and when he realizes this and tries to create the same username on the new project he's told it's taken by SUL, with no link like "If it's yours, see [homewiki]:special:mergeaccount". Such a link would be nice, both from the page that indicates "the name's taken so you can't register it" and from the page that indicates "you can't log in with that name, as it doesn't exist locally".
