Dropboxes may not be unique while identified by student name

Description

Dropbox's may not be unique while identified by student name. There may be 2 or more drop boxes with the same name - also, if name changes, drop box name is not updated (SAK-4039)).
Drop box could be identified by user id and could be referenced in UI by something like:

Last, First name (EID)

or

UDS:getDisplayName() +"(" + UDS:getDisplayId() + ")"
where UDS -> UserDirectoryService

This description should be built on demand.

I hope you don't mind, I've cloned this to https://sakaiproject.atlassian.net/browse/KNL-502#icft=KNL-502 so it will get the attention of Kernel maintainers and attached Nuno's patch.

You're right! I have attached the patch we are using at producion (Sakai 2.6.x).

Actually, for 2.6+ this appears to be a kernel patch.

We've run this patch for quite some time as well, no issues.

Attached very simple patch. This has been applied to our production servers for some months.
