One e-mail linked to: many organizations and many channels, each with your own customizable display name. I think that's the ideal, is this where they're going with it?

If so, it does not at all fit my use cases for Slack.

1. Like with LinkedIn I need to be able to use multiple e-mail addresses, but the current system of having to log in separately to each account is a mess.

2. I want to be able to quickly mentioned people based on a username without having to go via a disruptive dialog box. Not least because I want to be able to mention people outside Slack and have integrations find the right person.

Display names are nice as an addition, but not as a replacement.
