In Short
Impact
Rationale
Currently, Quassel supports identd for per-user ident to allow owners of larger quassel cores to avoid a ban of one user affecting the others. Many networks have stopped supporting this, though, instead opting to move to IPv6 based alternatives.
With this change, the operator of a Quassel Core can set an IPv6 for each individual user, which will be used for outgoing IRC connections, allowing bans against one user to avoid affecting other users.
