Author selection BUG?

[sip]

Hello,

Have "N" number of trusted writes/Admin complete with First Name/Last Name data.

Login as admin
Content > Add Article

The Author shows fine (for the user who is logged in).

However the moment author is changed by selecting the user-name from drop down, the first-name/last-name box also shows user-name instead of name which is already there in database for the user selected. What this does is

(1) It introduces additional step of need to type manually (and hence introduce chances of typo) for every article added where author s being changed by admin (can happen when admin is approving pending articles)

(2) If (1) above is not done then article shows user-name instead of first name/last name.

Ideally f the user is changed (by Admin and this can happen when Admin is approving pending articles and associating with different author) and user has first name/last name then that should be displayed in author box.

Is this a BUG? If yes where to fix it till it is fixed by vivvo?

If i have to open a ticket please let me know.
I have tested on different test installs and this s reproducible.

regards
