ROFL - unique display names Well, I suggested the same, but per SIM -- not globally :p Making them globally unique would kinda void the whole reason they are being introduced imho.
I think I saw a very strong argument posted here about not automating anything though: It's near 100% sure that people will be able to LOOK like having the same display name while no computer will be able to notice that. I think that using a different color or rectangle around display names (or user names) to differentiate them is the way to go to make sure nobody will ever think that a display name is someones user name.
