Comment 17 for bug 262193

This is not a feature - it is a bug. This misfeature allowed an unknown third party to edit my profile - and it has clearly happened to others here. This is a misfeature that is dear to Mark's heart - so it's obvious it won't be fixed. I don't really care if the account holder wants to set their location on a map. They can choose to do so. I did not choose to do so. Someone else set it for me without my consent.

I'd offer a patch - but it's not like one can apt-get source launchpad to fix it. This should be reset back to high - it is important, and Mark really needs to have a long think about whether or not it really is such an important feature to have unknown third parties editing launchpad user profiles in any way.
