If anyone was wondering the answer to the "what happens when you switch two usernames" question, the answer is that your forwarding choice has no effect as no forwarding is attempted. The result is the same as before you started -- they are independent and neither tries to forward to the other. That was the response from some LJ support person and it was borne out in practice on IJ.
