"and by far the majority of IRC clients
I'm aware of, i.e. it's the established convention - fills in this field with
your system user name by default, which I take to be "Pascal"."
By default yes - without having pointed out this to me beforehand, no.
I consider this to be a rather important difference.
Konversation is the first application that displayed such behavior that I have
used so far, now I can't say I've vast experience with irc clients as
Konversation is most likely only my fourth - but personally I find this
unacceptable for any aplication. 
(I wouldn't want my mail client automatically creating a signature based on my
system information without informing me of it either) 

Due to the time and wanting to turn in for the night I didn't double check the
information and somehow come to the invalid conclusion that it was displayed
when leaving the channel. So that bit can be ignored.
All I'm asking for is to display the identity window upon running Konversation
for the first time.
