New submission from Sergey <psergey79 at gmail.com>:

Preconditions:
 - "Central" repository on windows, with access by https, iis as web server, 
Active Directory authentication
 - "Local" repository, of user John on windows, with mercurial.ini which 
contains:
[ui]
username = Mary
Activity:
 - John clone central repository, authenticating as John
 - John make some changes in local repository and commits them
 - John push his changes, authenticating as John 
Result:
 - gh log in "central" repository shows that author of changes is Mary
Expected behavior:
 - gh log in "central" repository should show that author of changes is 
John, because the user who pushed changes was authenticated as John.
I used tortoiseHg on "local" repository to get this result, but i guess it 
use standart hg commands and that the same behavior is a common one on any 
platform and client.
I consider it really critical because anyone can commit code using name he 
likes.
