Enrico, in addition to your ack/nack collecting, I think it is valuable
to collect unmet needs to guide future work.

It sounds like multiple people are saying there's a need to easily
determine whether at the current time a given username is a dd.

In practice removing the -guest thing will make that harder for the
common case.
I don't know that means it is a blocker, but it does sound like it means
that's an area where working to understand and meet that user need
independently of your proposal would be good.

(And if it is a blocker, obviously it becomes a higher priority.)
