The installer does not warn the user when a non-usable user name is entered on the "who are you" screen, nor does it show information about its requirements, instead it just refused to continue by not activiating the "forward" button which makes the text "ready when you are" seem like somewhat of a joke. This is in the 10.10 live desktop installer.
