Thanks reopening the bug. I have considered it for a while and I think the correct answer is to take a step back and consider whether this is truly the best approach (e.g. Guillem filed #932152 as an alternative that completely replaces --name and the related issues). Accordingly, I will revert the change and reopen #462389. For reference, I am aware of at least 3 suggested changes/patches related to this bug after Helmut reopened it. (Those are Dmitry's follow plus two independent merge requests on salsa). Thanks, ~Niels
