Thank you for the quick follow-up.
The second account I want to merge didn't come into existence because
I was using two, but because Launchpad was just a tad bit quicker with
importing translations from GNOME into Launchpad than I could validate
my new email address. Since then, many new translations and Bazaar
commits have been made using that email address, so data which I
consider important to associate with my account has been piling up a
lot.
