Pardon my ignorance, but why? It is very common practice for companies
to allocate login names as some form of the name of the user, like
slarge, l.onken, stefank, etc. and use the same name as part of the
email address, which effectively makes the username public. Same for
many ISPs, login name = email address. Surely it is the password which
needs to be secure, not the username.
