2012-12-12 11:45 AEST by Arthur Barrett - Revisions already have a two properties to describe the author:
* author
* username
Both of these store the 'system name' of the author (or the pserver alias).
This bug describes an enhancement to store a 'descriptive name' when the 'system name' is not
descriptive, e.g.: DOMAIN\17000038
In most cases the username and author are identical - so
- the author field could be adapted for this purpose, or
- the descriptive name could be a new field
- the descriptive name could just be an automatically set 'property'
On Windows the 'descriptive name' could be extracted from the active directory:
- when using pserver with SystemAuth
- when using sspi
- when using gserver
In this case the protocols will need to 'pass back' the descriptive name.
