Comment:

 Then it should be dropped in favor of using the connect server as that
 part of the username split. So a current account of "user at silcnet.org -
 silc.silcnet.org" (Username at Network - Connect Server) would become
 "user at silc.silcnet.org" (Username at Connect Server). Does that sound
 reasonable? Will that break anything? The other alternative is simply to
 drop Network entirely (though I like that idea much less).

 It might be nice to see if we could get feedback from Pekka on this
 (seeing as how he wrote it in the first place) but I don't know if he's
 still active, I don't think we've seen anything from him in a while.
