      1. Add the "username" column to your $CFG->showuseridentity variable (must be in config.php, because the "Username" field is not shown in the admin interface by default).
      2. As an administrator, navigate into a course with one or more enrolled users and go to "Participants"
      3. Make sure that all enrolled users exhibit a username.

      In our production system, the username column is part of $CFG->showuseridentity. Therefore, (accordingly privileged) users can see a Username column on the participants page (/user/index.php?courseid=xxx). Until Moodle 3.3, that column was filled with respective usernames. However, starting with Moodle 3.4, that column is empty. With the according development settings, PHP notices are displayed as well:

      {Notice: Undefined property: stdClass::$username in <snip>/user/classes/participants_table.php on line 420

      For organisational reasons we need the contents of the username column to be displayed in Moodle 3.4 as well.
