I’d like to prevent the word “Anonymous” being used in a username **except** for when created by Discourse’s anonymous mode.

This wasn’t possible because of the problem noted above (i.e. preventing humans from using “Anonymous” also prevents Discourse’s anonymous mode from using it).

But has it been changed since then?
