#4926 new defect (bug)

Inconsistent handling of username between Toolbar and BP URLs

Description

Reported on IRC. WP 3.5.1, BP 1.7.

Username has a space in it, e.g. "Paul Gibbs". Nicename also needs a space in it. Couldn't figure out how to achieve this without hacking the user record in the database, so do that.

Look at the user's URL on the members directory: e.g. ​http://example.com/members/Paul%20Gibbs/
Look at the user's toolbar URL on the "Howdy" menu: e.g. ​http://example.com/members/PaulGibbs/profile/edit/

Spaces in nicenames will be converted to hyphens by sanitize_title() (or a user equivalent) iirc.

This is likely related to our old username compatibility issues.
