$member does not appear to be dereferencing correctly in moderated subscription requests
So I'm having an issue with a new 3.2 install. All the lists I have are set to confirm + approve on new subscriptions, but it seems that no matter how a new subscription come in, it does not actually pass the applicant's name to the moderator. I've tested now with a new email address previously unknown to the system and made sure I filled in the name field in the form. I've tested with an email address previously KNOWN to the system (subscribed to other lists) that has its display name fields filled in AND filled in the name on the subscription form, and yet again with that account having cleared out the display name fields associated with the account. In all cases I was careful to be sure to fill in the name on the subscription form.
Buried somewhere in the templates documenation I found that the $member template variable in the list:admin:action:subscribe.txt template is supposed to be both the email address and the display name of the person applying to subscribe, but it just doesn't appear to be coming up as more than just the email address.
Have I missed something horribly, or did I come across a bug?

It looks like that :) Can you please file an issue on Gitlab?
The documentation does say the display name and email, so if it is not showing up, either the doc needs updating or the code needs fixing.
