Hi, I wonder why first and last name are not good enough. I have found the model clear and privacy aware. Such image id is complemented with remote credentials in remote repositories (SmalltalkHub, GitHub, etc) and I deploy distinct images for distinct projects or releases (which is now easier with PharoLauncher), so I fail to see other use cases.
