[Bug 1223063] [NEW] Deleting display name does not remove it

 

Public bug reported:

Tested on Mahara 1.7 and 1.8.0dev

When you provide a display name and then don't want to use it anymore,
you cannot get rid of it.

To reproduce:

1. Enter a display name into your profile and save the profile.
2. The display name is shown in the login box in the right sidebar.
3. Delete the display name from your profile and save.
4. Expected behaviour: Your first and last name is shown again instead of the display name.
Actual behaviour: Your display name is still shown.
