[gme-users] differences between representations

[Peter Volgyesi]

Unfortunately, the GUI parts (Views, Browser and Attribute Panel) does not
handle the Displayed Name attribute in a consistent manner. (The model
database and the XML parser/dumper does not have this problem). Hope, we'll
have time to review these problems soon.
