Summary	0004198: Realname can duplicate a username
Description	A user can pick a "realname" that duplicates an existing "username". Username is a unique field, but there is no checking / enforcement on the realname field. This a malicious user can chose a realname that replicates someone elses username (e.g., administrator) and pose as them.
Tags	No tags attached.
