Summary	0012480: Editing a bug with no assigned user and no access to edit assigned to field shows 'user0'
Description	If a user of role updater edits a record with no assigned user then the 'Assigned To' field shows as 'user0'.
Steps To Reproduce	Create new bug with status 'new' but don't assign to any user. Login with user role 'updater', select the newly created issue and click the Edit button on the View Issues page. Note that the Assigned To field shows as 'user0'.
Additional Information	Appears to be a simple bug in either the user_get_name function in core/user_api.php or within bug_update_advanced_page.php. A simple fix is to amend the following line (103) of bug_update_advanced_page.php: $tpl_handler_name = ( 0 == $tpl_bug->handler_id ) ? '' : string_display_line( user_get_name( $tpl_bug->handler_id ) );
Tags	No tags attached.

In fact, it happens to any user that can access the "edit" page of a bug, but doesn't have a high enough acces level to edit the "Assigned to" field. Edit: I've applied the suggested fix, and seems to work fine!
