465609 - Show real name (not just login) in CC List.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: User Interface, enhancement)

Description

[Eiren Smith]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_5_5; en-us) AppleWebKit/525.26.2 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.2 Safari/525.26.12
Build Identifier: 3.2RC2

I'm referring to the list of users already CC'd on a bug, not the "Add" list.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Look at the list of users already CC'd to a bug.

Actual Results:  
Observe that only their login names show, not their real names.

Expected Results:  
I've always expected to see real name + login in the CC List, not just login.

Note that if the Parameter "usemenuforusers" is ON, users' real names are displayed in the "Add [to CC list}" list. I'm requesting that the CC List multi-selector display names the same way: "real name <login>".

I searched hard for this and didn't find an existing bug about it.

related to bug 218917, but this enhancement here still would show the login.

The problem is that the width of the CC list would be very large if we do this. :(

This will be solved with Bugzilla 6.0 that comes with the new modal UI created for BMO. We’ll eventually show a list of user names instead of real names.
