Re: [Gramps-devel] Screenshots of new name handling.

[Julio S. <jul...@gm...>]

That sounds right for me.  Deals with patronymics and provides an
universal solution for the grouping problem, if I understood it
correctly.  Not what I had in mind, but you can get a lot of mileage
out of that.

The rest of the points I made have more to do with the smart selection
of candidates in the database to fill specific roles, finding
candidates for merging, etc.  Nice to have, but not so critical, in my
opinion.

Keep up the good work!
