--- Comment #2 from Emil Velikov <emil.l.velikov at gmail.com> ---
You're correct - the SONAME does stay intact. One could trivially change that
with patchelf.

Let's take a look at the following combinations:
 1) standard vs GLVND
names: GL
symbols: standard

 2) GLVND
names: GLX_mesa
symbols: (should be) limited set != standard

 3) mangling
name: Mangled + (GL, GLX_mesa?)
symbols: standard prefixed with m

 4) arbitrary name
name: ?? does it it interact with mangled and/or GLVND?
symbols: standard - how do we ensure no symbol collision?

That said, an arbitrary name many have worked in a particular combination, but
the rest were broken :-(

Attempting to have all the cases working is O(N), while 4) is a rm && patchelf,
post-install.

Can see that being slightly annoying, but I hope you'll agreed on the goal.
