I've only seen this in the GTK client, but it may go
deeper.

I click on a file in my download list and it shows what
clients it thinks might have part of the file on the
right.  I frequently see duplicate client names.  I
assume these are the same clients seen on different
IPs.  These extra entries show me no extra information,
and could be combined in the output without losing
anything.

I've also noticed that when trying to re-connect to
clients advertising a file, all of the duplicate names
are tried.  This makes sense since the dynamic-IP
client could be on any of them, but the connection
attempts continue after successfully reaching one of
the addresses.  It would be nice on the network to
cancel connection attempts to the same client on
different addresses once the client has been reached.

On a related note, there are a lot of nameless clients.
 Some of them get names eventually...and some don't.  I
would prefer that the nameless clients stay unlisted
until they are contacted.
