Title:
  Invalid username input creates repeated alerts of invalid username

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Well,I was installing Ubuntu(GNOME) Karmic Alpha 3 when I did a few
  back and forths from step 8 to the partitioning screen(partitioning
  manually) because of confusion as to which partitions are being
  formatted.After confirming to my satisfaction that everything was
  appropriately allotted to be formatted(and not),I introduced a
  underscore in my username,clicked Forward,and repeated alerts of
  "Invalid username The username you entered is invalid. Note that
  usernames must start with a lower-case letter, which can be followed
  by any combination of numbers and more lower-case letters" pop up as
  soon as I click Ok on the previous alert.As a result,I can't fix the
  invalid username,since focus is given to the never ending alert boxes.

  EDIT: Used xkill to get rid of Ubiquity.
