Title:
  Admin user edit page doesn't warn about bad usernames

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  If an admin is changing the username of a user, they can enter in a
  bad username (less than 3 chars, more than upper limit, bad charaters
  within, etc). When the form is submitted no verification is done, but
  the change_username function fails before writing to database.

  It would be good to give feedback as to why the username is failing.

  Cheers,

  Hugh
