User talk:Chris G/Account impersonation

Band-aid?
Seems like a good stop-gap, but do we have a bugzilla in place to improve the functionality so that bureaucrats can just tick that box? I think that assigning it the same password as the account being renamed, or perhaps assigning it a random password but linking it in some way such that password recovery feature will email the new account's email address. FWIW when I was renamed, my old name got somehow automagically created in this manner. –xenotalk 13:31, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
