OK ... I updated a couple of pages in the codex to correctly represent the use of the dot-org usename as the Author name, but wouldn't it be a lot more aesthetically pleasing to be able to use the author's "real" name instead .. or as well?<br>

A similar explanatory message should be added for Themes ...

</div>You may be correct that it was never written down anywhere, it was<br>
just assumed as such from the start. In the case of the plugins, it<br>
