   I like the approach of creating a new common method sn, givenname = def 
ldap_parsecn(cn, familyfirst)
   
   This would eliminate a lot of unneeded parameters and variables and localize 
changes.
   
   I'd also add two parameters that should default to 1: givenNameLength and 
snLength. A recent example is (anonymized) George De Silva. We can have the 
default still be
   givenName George
   sn Silva
   and then the secretary needs to type De into the sn field. Silva is not the 
sn, but De Silva is.
   
   I've been looking for the way to express this in the icla panel and it's a 
bit awkward. We would need four buttons: increase and decrease givenName length 
and increase and decrease sn length.
   (+) Given Name (-) [George_________________________________]
   (+) sn (-)                 [Silva_________________________________]
   If secretary pushes the (+) button, the display changes to
    (+) sn (-)                 [De Silva_________________________________]
   Pushing the (+) button again would give
   (+) sn (-)                 [George De Silva_________________________________]
   And pushing the (-) button would revert the field to the proper result.
   
   Again, I don't know how to express the (+) and (-) in Vue/whimsy terms, but 
I think the (+) and (-) are probably self-explanatory for any of the secretary 
team to use.
