Describe the bug
When a user takes over a post from another user, the editor will show the picture of the user taking over but not their name, causing unnecessary confusion.

To reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. With one user, create a post.
  2. Save the post as a draft.
  3. In another browser or private/incognito window, log in as a different user with the ability to edit others' posts
  4. Find the post from step 1 and edit it.
  5. When prompted, "Take over" the post.
  6. Within 90 seconds, the first window should show that "someone else" has taken over the post. It may show the Gravatar of the user.

Expected behavior
More identifying information of the user taking over is expected, especially their name.

The issue was not corrected in that original ticket. This particular issue mentioned here was not fixed until ticket #56197, and will not be present in 6.0. You need 6.0.1 for this fix to be applied.
