Bug Description

Some users have apparently tried to authenticate to their private PPAs with their display name, not their username. The display names have spaces, so they break the Apache log parser regular expression (which uses "(\\S*)").

OOPS-1818PPA10348 is an example.

It's not been deployed on germanium, so it's not really "fix released"...
