When you create a new account, the field that has
initial focus is the nickname field. That's wrong --
the initial focus should be on the first field in the
dialog, i.e., the filename field.

    Actually, the correct field has focus. My intent is to
    simply mirror the data entered in this field in the
    filename field, permitting those who want to change the
    filename to do so. Since the account list refers to
    nicknames not filenames, the nickname is the more
    important of the two.

    One of the design changes I'm working is to remove all of
    the filesystem dialogs. There's simply no reason why an
    average user needs to concern themselves about filenames,
    and other changes require certain filename formats to be
    followed. Those users who want to modify filesystem names
    are still free to do so through externally.
