Do I understand you correctly that new accounts can make their name anything 
including existing account names?

I just wanted to point out that this theoretical new user's username would be 
baloo198731, it would not be baloo198731.resident. The 'Resident' isn't really a 
part of a new user's identity. It is only shown to viewers that do not support 
display names and legacy LSL script calls - in other words that last name is 
only there when required for backwards compatibility.
