[wp-hackers] Security: username as class in commenst

[g30rg3_x]

Hi again,

>From previous attempts to promote this related-ideas to go core... i
can tell you that this won't never happen.
Best shot you have is to ask for a plugin (filter) hook.

There is one filter for change it on-registration/insertion of a new
user which is called "pre_user_nicename"
But you will actually need some filter on comment-template.php
function get_comment_class which allows you to change this
over-the-fly.

However as i previously says, promoting hiding the information would
never happen but if you instead ask for a filter/hook then your
chances of getting to core that change will raise.

Regards.
