Yes, but because the burden rests on us to differentiate the two, it's not seamless. For it to be seamless, we should never be seeing the userid. It can still exist, for functional reasons, whatever those may be. But on our end, we should only be dealing with the username. If the username changes, so be it. We don't need to bend over backwards so that a fickle user can keep his or her server data every time they get bored with their username.
