Comment:

 We standardized on "username" because users didn't understand why the
 field name changed every time they changed the protocol in the selector
 above it.  Your argument is flawed in that you assume everyone knows the
 correct terminology for every protocol, which is a completely invalid
 assumption.

 Note also that we're not the only multi-protocol IM client that does this.
 We're not likely to change this any time soon.
