            Bug ID: 363727
           Summary: Account Recovery requires user to remember user
                    account name. This is broken.
           Product: www.kde.org
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
               URL: https://identity.kde.org/index.php?r=site/passwordRese
                    t
                OS: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kde-www at kde.org
          Reporter: rabcor1 at hotmail.com

Summary pretty much says it all, on kde.identity users are far, far, far more
likely to forget their username than their password since you have a completely
broken username registration system as well (e.g. you do not allow the users to
pick their own username, you automatically generate their usernames)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Forget your username
2. Try to log in to kde.org
3. Cry

Actual Results:  
Lots of crying

Expected Results:  
Successful account recovery

This is a known issue, and can only be resolved when we rebuild Identity. I've
no time frame for that as this time i'm afraid.
