Description Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) 2014-07-11 23:50:00 UTC
Currently if there are existing unattached accounts, and you try and create an account with that name, it'll create it as an unattached account.

We should add a config setting to prevent this behavior, and tell the user the name is already in use.
