CheckUser should use the hook "AuthPluginAutoCreate" and catch autocreated users
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Author: mike.lifeguard+bugs

Description:
Since the automatic account creation log entries are excluded from recentchanges, they are not available to CU. Perhaps having the info entered to recentchanges but marked as bot would do this. Or have the info entered into the CU table but not recentchanges.

Changing summary to use Siebrand's description. Less alarmist, and less BEANS-y :D

CCing Aaron, as he seems to be on a spree of fixing CheckUser things :DD

Reverted in r39666 (heh).

"Revert r39647 -- doesn't work, parameter is a User object not a name."
