Description
When the global setting is "off" users can still see the corresponding field on their personalize form, causing confusion.
The field on personalize_form should probably be hidden unless the global setting is on.

The description of this option in Site setup/Editing in English is plainly incorrect: "Once enabled, users will then be able to enable this option in their preferences."
Furthermore, the option has no effect anyway as the short name can still be changed by entering Contents/Rename.
Checking the option in Site setup/Editing should ideally prevent editing of the short name, by whichever means, unless the user has some assigned role.
