It isn't needed, I eliminated the rename of the merging snapshot LV name
to 'snapshotX' as it proved unnecessary/undesirable.

The merging snapshot is hidden (!lv_is_visible()); lvs -a will display
it though:

# lvconvert -b --merge test/testlv1_snap
  Merging of volume testlv1_snap started.
# lvs
  LV      VG   Attr   LSize Origin Snap%  Move Log Copy%  Convert
  testlv1 test Owi-a- 4.00g         13.37                        
# lvs -a
  LV             VG   Attr   LSize Origin  Snap%  Move Log Copy%
  Convert
  testlv1        test Owi-a- 4.00g          10.59                        
  [testlv1_snap] test Swi--- 1.00g testlv1                               

Thanks for following up though!
