Anonymous is logged differently, so it can't be handled with the same rule:

"Anonymous user logged in" vs. "czanik is now logged in"

Considering that the lower case name is preferred, I'd say, that we
should use the second way, but use a lowercase "anonymous":
<value name="usracct.username">anonymous</value>
Bye,
