Allow selecting icon when using another account

Title:
Allow selecting icon when using another account

Area:
multiple accounts

Summary:
Allowing you to use icons by typing in keywords manually when you're logged in as one account and commenting with another.

Description:
If you hit reply on an entry when you're logged in, then click "More options", there's an "Other" link to allow you to comment with a different account while staying logged in as your main account. However, if you do that, it still shows "Icon to use" with the icons from your main account. I'd like to be able to pick an icon from the account I'm using to comment. Obviously it can't pull the list very easily, because that would need an extra refresh once you'd typed in the account name, but if you click other, could it be made at least a box you can type in rather than a drop-down, so I can type in the keywords I can memorise?

Given that the list of keywords for an account is reasonably public (since you can read them on the allpics page), I wonder if an ajaxy pull of the keywords could be done. But if not, at least being able to type one would be good.
