Adding a new contact sets the displayname to the current displayname, instead of leaving it empty so it can change when the contact changes their name #4045

  • Operating System (Linux/Mac/Windows/iOS/Android): xubuntu 22.04
  • Delta Chat Version: 1.46.0
  • Expected behavior: For contacts where I never set a display name manually, the display name changes when the contact changes it.
  • Actual behavior: The display name they had when I met them stays, even if they change it, unless I explicitly remove it in the UI.
  • Steps to reproduce the problem:
    • click on an invite link to add a contact, e.g. OPENPGP4FPR:AA5FDEF02BFC355FDEA09FF4CA4AFCD2F065E613#a=deltawoot%40nine.testrun.org&n=Friendly%20Chatwoot&i=q4DhTVr1T2A&s=mT3Bo9JDdVx
    • click on their name to display contact information
    • click edit in the top right to edit the display name
    • realize that it is not empty, but set to the current name
    • exit without changes
    • from the other profile, change the display name
    • from the other profile, send a message to yourself
    • realize the display name in the app is not changed
    • edit the display name to remove it
    • realize that now the display name is the changed one
  • Screenshots:

I noticed this (names not empty) too, but I didn't know it was related to invite links
