Use login names instead of real names

When I go to PN admin / photoshare / storage setup, or when I make an album public and I want to assign admins to it, I might have hundreds or thousands of users and know them by their user name (the one they use for posting news, on the forum, ...) and don't know their real name, so it might be harder finding them, making me have to go to Admin PN / user managenemt, search for them and look up their real name. I'd also like to be able to have my users see that an album is owned by Mandtis instead of by Aitor Fernandez, who they probably don't even know who is :D

I sure will only have one Mandtis or one whatever as a login name, I might have lots of... Mikes? No big deal if you see "album owner: Mike", but how about if you give access to editing your albums or give 50Mb storage to the wrong Mike? :)

But displaying the real-name instead of the Login-Name is not very good... I tried to fix it myself, but dont get it working... :( Any hints for me??? J?rn, can you give a option to make it possible (change between real-name and loginname), please.
