%username% parsed as Display Name by ADManager

%username% parsed as Display Name by ADManager

We are trying to use User Templates in ADManager.  We want to automatically create the path for the user's home directory (Account tab --> Home Folder).  However, if we use (as suggested even) \\server\share\%username%, ADManager incorrectly parses the variable as the user's Display Name (barbaraann instead is parsed as Barbara Ann, for example).  I tried substituting some other variables but if it's not a variable ADManager is prepared for, it seems ADM just strips out the variable from the path.

Help?
