New description:

 I have two accounts at wordpress.org.

 1. Registered on September 13, 2011

 Username: henry.wright
 URL: http://wordpress.org/support/profile/henrywright

 2. Registered on September 26, 2012

 Username: henrywright
 URL: http://wordpress.org/support/profile/henrywright-1

 This results in one user having the username of 'henrywright' and another
 user having the URL of 'henrywright-1'.

 My question - With reference to the second account (registered on
 September 26, 2012), at the point of registration should I have been told
 me that the username 'henrywright' was already taken?
