This isn't much different from what you can do today, by creating a throwaway group with the tag "Moody Customer Service" and doing the same thing. Is it a huge problem? I don't see any evidence that it is. It does happen occasionally, but y'know: welcome to Earth. Will it become a huge problem with it can be the display name, rather than the group tag, that can be anything? I don't see any reason to think so, myself. Certainly it *will* be a good idea to stress to people that display names can be anything. But of course since everyone will have chosen their own, and known that they could choose anything, they will sort of know that! :) DC
