Issue Summary

Permissions can be assigned directly to users. In Jira, user records have two different attributes, user key and username. The bug happens when a user has two different records, as exemplified below:

When user 1 is referenced in a permission scheme, Jira will display user 2's display name. In case there is no record for user 2, Jira will display user 1's key.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Access a permission scheme
2. Grant a permission to a single user

• 
  • Here, the problem will only occur if the user once had a record that was deactivated and is currently pointed as Former user or if there exists a user record that once

Expected Results

Correct user is displayed

Actual Results

Incorrect user record is displayed:

• 
  • The expected user to be displayed was FaresGmail, but the one actually displayed was Fares Abbes

Additional Information

Although Jira displays the permission as being granted to a Former User, the permission is properly associated with the correct user in the database, so this behavior does not represent a permission problem.

Workaround

This problem is not reproduced if the permission scheme is accessed through the project settings page (Project Settings > Permissions).
