Interesting.

The caller, should_accept_remote(), still uses remote_name variable
that is an alias to advertised->name to find the config_entry to
pass down the callchain, so this step does not change the fact that
we are still using their name and not overriding it with our local
name, but hopefully we will see such a change on the caller's side
to allow us do so.

Very well done.
