PMCs can already use the account request form directly with a link to the vote thread. That doesn't help when the person submitting the ICLA doesn't have one on file yet. It doesn't help when I get an ICLA without a project and userid included. It doesn't help when PMCs make vote threads for new committers using their GitHub username instead of a real name. These are the general problems being solved here as far as I can tell.
