username change option

This should never be implemented. You play an opponent, they change their username, then you search for the game and never find it. Chess.com has this issue.
A note here;
If you have deleted old accounts , you can still find these games in the Search dialog. You can analyze these games , study them , download PGN , etc. The stats of deleted accounts , however , have been lost.
As for the username change option , I agree with Tomash87.
If something can be abused, it will be abused. I don't see this being implemented for that reason alone.
