Please do not do this as there will then be NO WAY to easily understand who the heck is doing what in GitHub!

This information is very useful for PMC Members.

> The GitHub username is no longer used by Infrastructure processes. The linkage between LDAP accounts and GitHub usernames is contained within the gitbox service. LDAP is not used as a storage mechanism for that linkage.
> As a result, I believe the field is obsolete and (worse) potentially confusing with the account *actually* linked to an LDAP account. I think it should be removed from the UI. (and eventually from LDAP, but that's orthogonal)
