Can see logins on users' profile pages

[#1]

When I open someone's profile (here on the forum), I sometimes see users' logins for a moment. Then the login is replaced by a user's real name. Looks like the js code loads the name and replaces the login with it. Let's go further. For example, I open my own profile page. I see there "Latest posts by Aleksandr S". Then I click "view source code" and search for "Latest posts by". Volia, I can see my login. This works for any profile.

Logins are not something should be kept as securely as passwords, but it's so easy to get them.

UPD. Some use their last names as part of their logins. So this can be revealed.
