Indeed, is a common accessor for domain/business objects. Have got use to having to re-implement each time myself but quicker to not have to.

Turns out that it seems that Object>>#name is actually not used (anymore). I just put a halt in it and tried a couple of tools and everything seems to work just fine. The comment talks about Inspector use, but there is #defaultLabelForInspector for that. It is a small thing, but it confuses everybody for no good reason, Any comments ?
