Comment(by deryni):

 Is that something that people need to do (changing the server in the
 network they connect to)?

 If it is we can still just drop Network entirely (possibly with the merge
 into Username) so as to not have the extra field at all. That would put
 this into the same category as the IRC/XMPP duplicate account scenario
 (which can all get fixed simultaneously when we can add a local account
 normalization mechanism).

 But yes, at the very least making the default not look like a hostname is
 a good start.
