[Bug 1347983] [NEW] Deleted users still get their names displayed

 

Public bug reported:

Mahara 1.10.0dev
MySql


In the lib/users.php::display_name() function.  

If a deleted user had a preferred name set up, it returns the preferred
name.

Whereas, if they didn't have a preferred name setup, it returns 'Deleted
user'.

I'm of the opinion that the function should also return 'Deleted user'
if preferred name is set.

I believe it's a privacy issue and it needs to be consistent.
