Details

When signing in to an account, the default device name is something like "{username}'s {channel} on {machinename}".

People who use temporary profiles for testing purposes often end up with duplicate device names, as all of those variables are the same.

If possible we should try and identify if the profile being used is not the default profile for the channel, and if so, use a default of something like "{username}'s {channel} on {machinename} ({profilename})" or similar.
