Interesting string. I was concerned about the security implications of allowing alias writing. Writing will rename objects and perhaps confuse data collection. There really isn't a permissions system in OWFS.
I've seen several suggestion: 1. Be able to write to the "alias" property of any device. 2. Reload from a changed alias file. 3. Have an explicit "reload" command. Can you explain the use case for changeable alias names? That would help us design the system.
