By looking at the screenshot, it's not really clear what is that klineedit and what is it actually for. I quickly scrolled through the code and I saw no click-message either, so I assume that the text will simply appear there (even letter by letter)? I'd like to see some label there. Also the icon looks wrong. I know you said it looks wrong on the right too, but currently it looks just randomly placed, it doesn't align with the horizontal edges/visual guidelines. How about moving the icon on the top right, making it bigger and putting big "Jabber" next to it (maybe bold? though that's generaly bad) and another line below it saying something like "You're about to create a jabber account". Then make the display name part of the form below, but label it with something like "Account name".

And don't forget that we're in freeze right now ;)

For example, if old default name is foo at bar.com and the display name is Foo <foo at bar.com> when the user changes something and the new default display name is foo at buz.com, the new display name becomes Foo <foo at buz.com> (This happens realtime while the user is typing)
