      http://musicbrainz.org/artist/1b8d5acd-10c3-4ec9-beac-fefebe91e0c4 used to be named Gérald De Palmas, which is the name he professionally uses for writing credits etc. However, most of his releases just use De Palmas as credit. http://musicbrainz.org/edit/33404006 changed the main name, but this also changed the relationships to use the short name, with no option to preserve the original as relationship credits. There should be a way to toggle this behavior.

      Like with changing artist credits, the default should be to keep the current credit.
