+1 for this feature, it's useful if the e-mail = login.

The patch seems to work correctly on the 0.9 branch.

If possible, could this be bumped into a "sooner" release?? (if not I assume the above patch will work against the current stable).

Thanks

Here's an updated quilt version of the patch that I'm using with the Ubuntu package from the PPA.

I had to change "ChangeUserNameLimit" to "ChangeUserLoginLimit" to match the file name for the migration to works.

This has taken a long time to be resolved, their is also #4991.
Can we be sure that when this does get added into a release that the database schema is also updated as the constraint is present there also, which the above patch seems to miss.

Can we get the priority raised on this, as it is a blocking issue for users we legacy accounts to integrate with Redmine.
