Re: iCLA of Yihua Cui

Seems like a bit of tooling is needed here.

I agree, but...

while this is an infrequent occurrence (only three times in the past year if I recall) it should still be either documented or "tooled". 

Is there an infra run-book that should be updated?

There are two distinct cases:

1. New account created wrong usually because Secretary fumble finger.

This case could use tooling usable only by Secretary.

2. User account was used but user requests a change for some very persuasive reason.

More stuff to do here, but maybe a combination of secretary tooling plus run book is needed. For example, the list of reserved accounts needs to be updated. I've never done that, but others have.

Possibly, but ideally this should be a very rare occurrence.
There's lots more to do apart from LDAP, especially if the account has
been used.

I don't think we want to encourage changes of id.
