Enhancement request

I want to request the option to use commonname(full name) instead of separated first and last name.

The already existent field "name" can be used for that, since here in Brazil we sometimes say "name" as the complete name.

Then, the lastname field could be removed from the format name function if this is set.

P.S.: I just tested the migration from a full database from 0.71.5 to 0.72RC at a test environment at work. Worked like a charm. Only issue that i noticed is if we stop at the verification screen and do the interventions needed(file permissions), and press F5 to re-send the last post at the installation process, the instalation loses the language choosen, and sets it to English. So i had to get back to the first screen to make it work properly.

P.P.S.: I had a plugin named "Human Resources" at my 0.71.5 installation and when copied the database, i just don't know where it is stored to clean it up. I don't want that plugin anymore and don't know if the presence of it on the database could harm my new installation.

P.P.P.S.: I think i can delete the tables "glpi_plugin_anything.." from the database safely, since i don't have any plugins on the new test environment. Am i right?

Re: Enhancement request

I edited the line 757 of the file inc/db.function.php from "$temp=$login;" to "$temp=$firstname;"

Now works only with complete names. Could this be a feature in future versions?
