Description Tony Thomas 2014-01-05 12:40:54 UTC 
Its difficult to find the nickname of people who comment for bugs in IRC like #wikimedia and #wikimedia-dev. 
Some of the popular other bugzillas are having the name in brackets like 
FooBar(:foo)
This would be a lot helpful for starters to catch up with developers on IRC.
Comment 1 Tony Thomas 2014-01-05 12:43:43 UTC 
I was wrong. No other bugzillas have that feature. But it would be great,if we had that, like 
FooBar(:nick) or 
FooBar[:nick]
Comment 2 Andre Klapper 2014-01-05 12:50:50 UTC 
Everybody is free to edit their the "Your real name" field in https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=account and add such information (that's how it is also done in bugzilla.mozilla.org). 
Nothing that requires any code changes, hence closing as WORKSFORME.
