Re: shortsighed on Github's end too

What I meant re. SO:

This is a link to answer about Perl and Unicode, as you would get it by using the "share" link at the end of each answer:

https://stackoverflow.com/a/6163129/471272

471272 is the ID of the user copying the generated shared link. I replaced mine with the person who originally answered. In his case, he has his real name - he's an author.

All you really needed was https://stackoverflow.com/a/6163129 but SO helpfully added in your profile because you were logged in. Without really telling you, of course. And it can be spoofed too, so you can go pasting stuff around on alt.rec.perverts on someone's behalf.
