Disambiguate between users based on their public key

In the screenshot below, I have posted messages from two identities. But since they are consecutive, and with the same nickname, they are merged.

I think this is too easily abused. We ought to instead disambiguate when to render a new nick/message-container based on the public key (instead of the nickname)

(i mean the merging is NICE but i think it should only happen when we have some kind of mechanism for sameAs, to merge identities across machines. not like this)

edit: we could probably do this with my trust thesis™️ by having a trust area called sameAs. for a particular root identity, any trusted peers are all regarded as the same in the interfaces.
