Jim has requested that the acceptor always return an acceptor name
token to the client even if the client sends an expected acceptor name
token to the acceptor.  The idea is that if the client sends something
like smtp the acceptor could return [email protected].

The advantage here is that the client gains a more complete form of the 
acceptor name.

In the meeting today I said there were no disadvantages besides a few octets.
Turns out that's not quite true.
The client now needs to confirm that the received name is acceptable.
Implementing that is a tad tricky but certainly doable.

I support this change but would like to call for comments.
