When an admin user goes to the UpdateUser view of a different user, the template gets only one username which is of the user being updated. This causes the admin user's name being overwritten in the header section thus making it appear that the user is modifying themselves and not the admin. This can cause confusion to the admin user. Explicitly getting the name of the user that made the request ensures that we always get the correct username.

Plinth
Plinth - a web front end for administering FreedomBox


Description
FreedomBox is a community project to develop, design and promote personal servers running free software for private, personal communications. It is a networking appliance designed to allow interfacing with the rest of the Internet under conditions of protected privacy and data security. It hosts applications such as blog, wiki, website, social network, email, web proxy and a Tor relay, on a device that can replace your Wi-Fi router, so that your data stays with you.
Plinth is a web interface to administer the functions of the FreedomBox. It is extensible and provides various applications of FreedomBox as modules. Each module or application provides simplified user interface to control the underlying functionality. As FreedomBox can act as a wireless router, it is possible to configure networking from Plinth. Plinth also allows configuration of basic system parameters such as time zone, hostname and automatic upgrades.
You can find more information about Plinth on the Plinth Wiki page, the FreedomBox Wiki and the FreedomBox Manual.
