wxAuiManager, bug in AddPane

[Friedrich Haase]

Moin Mr. Dunn,

Using Name() (not SetName() ?!?) in
wxAuiManager.AddPane(pWindow,
            wxAuiPaneInfo().Name(strWindowName)....);
indeed sets the name for the pane.

But what for? A caption might be translated, but a name need not. As far as 
I can see, there is no reason in wxAui for a name for the pane different 
from the window name except if the name hasn't got a name or for (stupid) 
multiple usage.

IMHO a strange design. Could you please explain?
