[cisco-voip] Change Platform Username CM 8.5

[Wes Sisk]

I'd be very apprehensive about this. This seems like an unusual use case. Unusual use cases rarely get tested. Using them frequently produces unanticipated impact at a later date.  The previously cited bugs about upgrades failing based on cli account substrings matching is a great example.

That said, technically, yes:

admin:delete account ?
Syntax:
delete account name
name   mandatory   name of the admin account

Regards,
Wes
