 Hello!

 In this particular case, perhaps, not. However, this automagic is used =
not only with GPIOs. It is used also with memory regions, as well as =
with some other places. Also, i thought that there could be some hard to =
notice problems, when, for example, we first add =
unnamed-gpio-in[0...1023], then add another 1024 pins, where count again =
goes from 0 to 1023. And we would get collision and failure, unless we =
know, that we already have 1024 objects with this name. So, just for =
better safety, i decided to fix the mechanism itself instead of changing =
use cases.

Kind regards,
