Comment (by deryni):
On MSN your email address *is* your screen name. In the same way that on
ICQ your UIN is your screen name. Having the text for that entry change
per-protocol was something that we used to do and was confusing to many
many people, I have seen many fewer people confused since we changed to
have them all say 'Screenname' because really despite what the name of the
authentication token really is everyone more-or-less understands what
should go there. At least that's my take on this.
