Description
Keybase GUI Version: 1.0.24-20170619144856+91a6943
Hi, I first created an alias under YehBaby.. then I wanted to get rid of that and use a new name.
Every time Keybase starts up, it's still trying to log me in as Yehbaby. I am unable to get rid of that account now.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the startup behavior described for Keybase GUI version 1.0.24-20170619144856+91a6943, using an account previously named YehBaby. Trace the startup login flow and determine what allows the old account to persist; done means the old account is no longer selected and the user can log in with the new name.
