Description
When installing 3.0-beta1, I entered admin-тест
as my username.
The setup went fine, and the last screen showed the username exactly as it was entered.
However after I tried to login, I got “Invalid username” error. When I checked wp_users
table it turned out the username was cut to admin-
.
If Cyrillic letters in username are still unsupported, perhaps there should be some error message during the installation.

I agree with "if Cyrillic letters in username are still unsupported, perhaps there should be some error message during the installation".
Or WP should not allow you to create such a username at all [instead of silently deleting Cyrillic characters]?
Perhaps WP should make a check if only Latin letters are used, and if not, then let the user know that only Latin letters should be used for a username, and do not allow to continue unless Cyrillic and/or other characters are inserted into a username field? Then allow to continue with install...
