The proposed branch makes MC prefer nicknames/aliases that
are not the canonicalised form of the inspected self-handle
string - The idea being that if we get an alias from the CM
that is not this form (and must therefore be the result of
user intervention) we will prefer that over our current value,
and likewise if the CM alias _is_ the canonicalised form, and
the account nickname is not, we will prefer the account nickname.
