Could we set up some sort of mechanism to provide UI-oriented display
name as well as a unique temporary username? I'm thinking some sort of
alias system for guest usernames, with these names stored in some kind
of lookup table.

Title:
  Guest username is nasty

Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Confirmed
Status in Light Display Manager:
  New
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When logging in to the guest account, the user is assigned the
  username guest-hWf1ay. I am assuming that the latter half of that is
  an auto-generated string.

  This is rather ugly and I think it should be changed to something a
  little more user-friendly, such as 'Guest'.
