Do you mind saying a few words about why?  I got one answer to my
earlier question asking for use cases for this, but I sorta doubt that
you've renamed your company or had a product bought out or whatever
dozens of times :-) And it'd be very helpful in thinking about design
stuff here if I wasn't so much guessing what people actually are
trying to _do_...
