No. Fingerprints are what to use here. Please do not use nicknames.
Ignoring the ambiguous assertions you'd be making with nicks,
it inserts the same ambiguity into downstream consensus parsers.
Just grok FP's your configs and assemble the family like any good admin.
Besides, other than for simply announcing a vanity tag, nicks are
going away in every area they are currently accepted as config input,
so don't get used to them as such. See tickets 12898, etc.

Note in current consensus, there are about 1500 different good strict
FP only family lines, and 60 different bad essentially random lines to fix.
'^family( \$[0-9A-F]{40})+$'

Ticket 12799 will apply further needed sanity to fingerprints.
