Ok, good.

We don't really have a "delete account" capability either,
unfortunately. Also, if we deleted it and someone else were to sign up
with it, then they'd end up with that user id on the wiki, which
probably wouldn't be ideal. I'd rather just disable the account, by
setting the password to an invalid value, if you'd really like me to.

Unfortunately, the wiki is quite painful to work with and I don't think
it would be a good idea for me to try and change it, simply because I
might end up breaking something.

The nice thing about the wiki is that anyone can modify it though, so
you could update the wiki with your new account to show that account
going forward. There would still be history that things used to exist
under the old account, but hopefully that doesn't really matter.

No worries. I'm going to bug Magnus about trying to find a way to make
this whole thing less painful.

Thanks!
