So does anybody else want Barbara to break out some of those 4096
character long names just to see how witty they are?

Zero on the wittiness scale.

I thought there might be something a bit interesting at the beginning and end of the names, but just glancing at a few of the testcases, here's a couple of the more interesting examples I found. Really. Some just have thousands of a single letter AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA etc.

D ds1 ds
D A0001BCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ...
D A0002BCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ...
etc

D T___variation_1_______at_is_very_very_very_very_very_very_very__...
