Summary0003517: Editing bug with disabled reporter incorrectly changes reporter
Description

If the person who reported a bug is disabled (from Manage Users) their name no longer appears in the drop-down list for reporter in the Edit Bug pages. Since none of the drop-down options can be selected, the browser simply selects the first in the list. If other changes are made to the bug, the reporter is therefore also changed to be the first in the list of people.

Steps To Reproduce
  1. Submit a bug as a (temporary) user.
  2. Disable the (temporary) user.
  3. Edit the bug - note that the "Reporter" field is incorrect, and that this is saved when the bug is edited.
Additional Information

Could be fixed quite simply by including disabled users in the drop-down list for the Reporter field.

They may be other fields where the same thing applies.

TagsNo tags attached.

The approach I would implement is to list all enabled users, + the original reporter if not enabled. So we only list a maximum of one disabled user.

I was not able to reproduce the problem with a fresh install of the latest stable MantisBT release (1.3.2 at the moment).
