I think the first thing you would need to do is identify exactly
what compatibility problems you are trying to fix.  Very short
hash values won't guarantee unique names, to be effective you
would need to work out how to resolve collisions.  Longer hash
values improve the probability at the expense of name length,
which comes back to knowing what the objectives are.
