Description: There should be a way to prevent someone else from usign an string for an author name that corresponds to some other author. That is, preventing identity theft.

That is after all a softned version of the AuthUser thinguie... I just don't want that someone try to pass as me, so that AllRecentChanges has some utility against wiki spamming, but I want everything else to remain the same...

Personally, I think it could work that way: if there exists a Profile/UserID page then only allow using that UserID to someone that has write access to the profile page (be it administrator or the user or whatever...)
