 Integrated scenario, bbpress 0.9.0.2 and WordPress 2.5.1

 When a user registers on bbpress, there is no WordPress role assigned to
 them.
 So when they try to leave a comment on WordPress, their username is not
 listed, instead it says 'Anonymous'.
 There are ways to give them a role, but the only workaround that lets
 their username show up in WP is to go (as an admin) into their profile and
 saving that.

 I haven't found any solution in the support forums, nor in the tickets and
 I think this is rather major - we use this software because of the
 integration, but now we have to update each user manually which is a big
 hassle!
