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.

Hi all,
For now, it is asked (by convention) a string containing our first name and last name (when code is submitted). Just wandering if you could have a better representation of a user of a Pharo image.
Could we imagine a user id instead ? That shouldnât be heavy to deal with and eventually one could add more functionalities (one being the authentification to a pharo based application).
The difficulty is to find a proper universal user id. I would have used something that encode date and place of birth in the id but it suffers some privacy related issues. Any ideas ? Another question is if an image may be used by several people ? To me allowing one user is ok for a developer image but it might be interesting to switch user spaces if itâs for a pharo application ?
