Development Tip -- uname vs name

In searching on a user, it is acceptable to use the uname for the string.
This identifier is unique, and can be used as a search string for relevant
information for the user.  It is however not used for display information
for the user.  In some instances, displaying the user name could be used as
a brute force attack on a website since logging in takes two vars (uname and
password).  You should not display the username, but rather use it as a
system identifier.

For displaying information about the user, use the name var.  This var is
not a unique var, but is a readable version of the user name.

For instance, with my intranet, my system ident is bna0jcc.  If I was to
pull that over via ldap, bna0jcc would not tell me much about the me.
However, the name var will tell the world that I am John Cox.
