Composr is supposed to recognise the possibility of referenced member accounts no longer existing, and deal with references to them in appropriate ways. This usually means skipping the references. However a fix to a recent release designed to allow deletion of a member with a blank username (a corruption seen in the wild) broke this functionality, and instead random usernames are showing for deleted members.
