           Summary: Blocking "IP:<IP>" blocks the IP, instead of the user
                    called "IP:<IP>"

            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal

It is possible to create accounts which are formed like IP:127.0.0.1, and
blocking that really blocks 127.0.0.1 instead of the username. This should not
be the case - either such usernames are invalid, or this must block the user
instead of the IP.
