Description Mike.lifeguard 2008-07-04 01:35:08 UTC Once a user has a unified account, the only way to rename it is to delete the global account, rename each local account then re-unify. This is unnecessarily onerous, and we need a method of renaming unified accounts. Comment 1 Cometstyles 2008-07-13 10:07:29 UTC *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 13507 ***
