There's no reason they couldn't accept "bunny.halberd" or "Bunny Halberd" as a 
login, and let people use "first.l...@..." for other services. Anyone who's up 
to dealing with third party services could manage that.

Basically, the only benefit Display Names provides that couldn't be implemented 
in the existing framework is Unicode titles.

And I'm still ticked off that my suggestion for a *new* merged account name was 
considered a justification for Display Names. Display Names satisfy none of the 
goals of that suggestion.
