From Antti Makela:

  I've been using the "Names"-facility to get some user-friendly names
for my Objects. Eg, Names::Add("Router", nodepointer);, or Names::Add
(routernode,"Ethernet0",link.Get(0));

  Has someone already made a patch to make these appear in tracefiles?
Now I'm getting "sim-nodeid-ifnum"-type pcap files, and I'd prefer
"sim-router-ifname" scheme for better readability.

Patch submitted in another bug report :) 

Thanks, I only noticed now that someone actually had copied my post from mailing list, so I didn't search..
