Yes, it was discussed at the time.  This was chosen because the input
subsystems tends towards the verbose when giving names to devices.

Obviously, it's just a display string.  I think what happened is that
when I checked this on some desktop systems I misread card->id as being
card->shortname in the /proc/asound output.  The former is far too
cryptic to be idiomatic in the input subsystem.
