This does not allow for non password user authentication.  The security,
or rather bug in question allows for brute force user name disclosure
and therefor a new bug report should be made and this ticket closed as
this description states falsely that "causes the system to skip asking
for a password if the username is invalid".

** Changed in: vsftpd (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
