      http://musicbrainz.org/artist/1b8d5acd-10c3-4ec9-beac-fefebe91e0c4 used to be named GĂ©rald 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.
