I perfectly agree the name has to stay the same regardless if it's a real
name or a nickname, the funny thing is the only field in the
mageia-identity web interface that cannot be changed is the alias/nickname
(uid), so the nickname is actually the only name you can trust not to
change! :)

If Mageia starts using the 'cn' for the package changelogs then the
packagers can change it whenever they feel like it, causing much
confusion...
