As you all know, I have had many requests to make the nicknames editable
for IRC accounts. This is not a difficulty, as withthe new network based 
accounts, I will just make it not part of the account ID. I will just have 
generated account IDs of the form NetworkName_<Number>.

This leads to a problem though. Although this will work perfectly fine for me 
internally, account ids are displayed in the interface in many places.. in 
the account editor, in the popup menu for accounts, in the system tray...
This is going to lead all these to have an uninformative account ID.

I would much rather have these things have a relevant string, like 
nickname@network. Is there any way we could add an accountDisplayName 
virtual that just defaults to returning the account ID ?
