Bug Description

To allow for future expansion of the service, we should blacklist some usernames:

  http://www.quora.com/How-do-sites-prevent-vanity-URLs-from-colliding-with-future-features?__snids__=4909005

At the very least, the ones like "admin", "root" and "postmaster" that could be abused if we gave away email addresses.
