Yeah, I actually hadn&#x27;t seen that, but I know there are also longstanding tickets for this. I actually don&#x27;t like the solutions in those threads, I think better to just add an extra field to the models, so have something like &#x27;db_email&#x27; and &#x27;display_email&#x27;. I realize you can do this with a functional index or whatever, but I think that&#x27;s actually kind of hacky given the lack of ORM support for functional indexes.<p>My big issue with the current state though is that if you&#x27;re relying on usernames or email addresses being unique then you&#x27;re potentially opening yourself up to all sorts of security issues without realizing it.
