Public bug reported:

This issue was reported by Kwantlen Polytechnic University.

The problem is that if you export a full portfolio to Leap2a, and then
you import it, and you choose to "ignore" the displayname, it still
overwrites your local displayname. At least, in some places.

This also happens for other profile fields as well. The problem is that
these are all "cached" artefacts, where their value is stored as an
artefact, and is also stored as a column in the "usr" table for quick
access. The import code is correctly updating or ignoring the artefacts,
but is incorrectly updating the usr table. Hence you see your old values
when you go to "Content -> Profile" but you see the new value in the
"Logged-in Users" sideblock.
