Linking UID - Current Username

Hey.

I've seen lots of posts where someone mentions someone's name and when I searched for it, nothing came out.
If someone wants to mention someone's name and put in the UID with a link, it would display the current username even if it was changed in the past.
It can be used to mention someone, give credits to someone or pretty much anything, but the username would be up to date.

Example code: [uid]4255494[/uid] (just an example, anything would do)
Result: Hulk

Linked user profile could also be colorized according to the current color it has.

Now, I don't know how hard would that be to make, if others would find this useful and if it's too heavy for the server if it has to do that each time it's loaded.
This was just a suggestion. Personally, I'd love to see this implemented.

Best regards,
Hulk
I'm pretty certain there is a userscript that does this for you, I could be wrong.

Is it? Can you pm me? Need to check something. If not it's not a bad idea.

I'm not 100% sure, I could be very wrong on that.
This is a good suggestion imo, there should already be a MyBB plugin for this.

I think this would be a good implementation
Probably wouldn't be all that hard since the logic is already in the contracts. Would it be implemented? I am assuming not.
