Cannot delete a duplicate user

[simbamangu]

Expected Behavior The lab lead should be able to delete a user account.

Current Behavior It is possible to create a user account with the same username as a current user (yes, I messed up ...) and now one has two users with the same name; unsure if this will cause problems at another level but certainly can lead to issues assigning to the right one.

Thoughts:

• Presumably we don't want to delete a user if they've made annotations. Not sure what to do then, probably renaming or 'deactivating' a given user would be needed?
• Perhaps not letting lableads make duplicate users is the main fix here?

The deletion issue is something we can address in the future, but there is already validation for preventing duplicate users, so I'm not sure how you did this? I did as broad of testing for this as I could and I always got a preventative error message. Cases I tested:

• same name same role
• same name different role
• same name with different capitalization
• same name with different capitalization and different role

Can you provide details on how exactly you got duplicate users?

I tried to add another duplicate user, and it rejects setup this time ...
