[MC-15228] Playing Offline on a World Will Create Another Player.DAT in The World Files

If you log into a world online with a Mojang account, it creates a Player.dat (Player being your username) and if you log in offline it will create another player.dat (player this time being your email address) Here is a link to my world's player foldier https://www.dropbox.com/sh/yrv1z5gzkl6ne59/oQt512LPiS

Not really seeing the problem here. If you log in using offline mode, the system cannot verify that you are the same person, and therefore it's not going to allow you to access the same inventory as if you logged in online.

I use a last login. The game has my password saved to the PC.

And unless your computer connects to the server to verify that information, it cannot be sure that it's correct. They're going to change the authentication scheme to store a token instead of saving your password, so that could become a non-issue. I'm not sure how that will affect servers though.
