Re: [EGIT PATCH] Provide a more JavaBeans-style 'getName' accessor for the id Signed-off-by: Alex Blewitt <alex.blewitt@gmail.com>

That patch was originally mailed on the 11th May. Has it taken until  
now to notice the problem, or was the other method added in the last  
month or so? If I'm to blame, I apologise but didn't note any compile
