I don't like that:
  1. We have would Node::GetId () but no Node::GetName ();
  2. Everything gets put into the same namespace, nodes or whatever;
  3. There should be trace path support for node names, otherwise what's the
point.

An intermediate possibility would be to put the names in the NodeList class. 
That would make a lot of sense, conceptually, and avoid the need for each node
to carry a name.
