In versions prior to the latest at the time of writing, this was the default behaviour.

In later versions, these mentions are included, but the thread title is changed to the phrase n_a.

This change was made for performance reasons, otherwise it would have been impossible to practically implement vB Optimise caching of the queries required to calculate mentions to be displayed.

This does not happen, unless you mention a new user in place of the old one (or add a new mention). The new user will then get a notification.

This behaviour makes much more sense in the latest version at the time of writing, where they will still see the new mention in their profile tab (although the thread title is hidden, and is not a link to the thread).
