In the majority of cases, the test name is not detailed enough, however, it 
usually gives a better idea than a plain bugid. If a test fails, you still have 
to analyse it.

Even if it's completely re-written, it's not a new test. I'd rather keep the 
original name: searching for it returns some bugs; if the test name is changed, 
those search results are lost.
