I think this raises a bigger question of whether the current convention of
Firstname Surname (cardnumber) addresses users' requirements. In our experience
here, it doesn't. I think it's maybe worth having a separate discussion of
whether we should be reconsidering the current situation and whether we should
be making other DataTable instances in line with what we have here. I think
it's certainly worth at least discussing.

Which does beg the question of what we do to achieve PQA on this bug. We don't
want it to be dependent on a potentially far reaching discussion. Do you think
we should keep it as is, pending the discussion, or make it consistent with
elsewhere, then address as appropriate following the discussion?
