Comment(by dsd):

 This doesn't work reliably for me. A=XO-1.5 and B=XO-1, both on 11.2.0
 candidate build 871, communicating over ad-hoc.

 Here is a test case that shows the problem clearer:

  * A and B join the same network, they are not friends
  * B looks at neighborhood view, observes A
  * A goes to "About Me" settings dialog, changes name to "one", waits for
 a few seconds. Sugar then warns "changes require restart". A does not do
 anything here - do not restart.
  * B's neighborhood view has already updated A's name, correctly showing
 "one"
  * Back on A, still with the name dialog open, change name to "two".
 Again, do not restart, Observe quick name change on B.

 Continue this test, running through the numbers. Usually fails for me
 before I reach five. In the failure case, B's neighbourhood view continues
 to show an old name, even if I wait a minute or so, and even if I restart
 A's Sugar (as requested) and reconnect A to the network.
