Etherpad supports ?userName IE http://beta.etherpad.org/p/foo?userName=test

I'm doing it at the time of Etherpad user creation: https://github.com/boonebgorges/participad/blob/master/includes/class-participad-user.php#L92 Is that enough?

Hrm it seems like enough but I wasn't sure if it worked or not.. Guess this needs testing and confirming. Leave it open and if you can create a Label called "Waiting for testing" that we can pass off as low hanging fruit

Yeah. It probably isn't a bad idea to do it on every pad load anyway, because I'm passing WP's display_name, which is a text field that users can change, so it may not be persistent between sessions.
