I've printed out all the roles of my user:

qml: UsersModel.display: michal
qml: UsersModel.decoration: QVariant(QIcon)
qml: UsersModel.name: michal
qml: UsersModel.realName: michal
qml: UsersModel.loggedIn: false
qml: UsersModel.background: QVariant(QPixmap)
qml: UsersModel.backgroundPath: 
qml: UsersModel.session: 
qml: UsersModel.hasMessages: false
qml: UsersModel.imagePath: 

So it's confirmed, all of display, name and realName roles return the
same value.

** Description changed:

  The current UX for tablets or when converged with a mouse attached is a
  bit of a placeholder showing the default phablet user.
  
  We need to support two modes of the greeter that scales according to the
  available input devices. The first one is one that works across mobile
  and tablet devices in non-mouse connected / touch-centric state.
  Unlocking with no mouse connected would be exactly as it is today on the
  phone, which displays the Infographic until you touch the screen, and
  then you get a message that says "swipe to unlock" If you don't have a
  pin code set, the screen unlocks. if you have a pincode set, the touch
  pincode-entry pad appears.
  
  If a mouse is connected, however, you get the more "desktop-friendly"
  greeter with the infographic, user-name and password entry field (just
  like what we have today) on tablet.  If the user taps or clicks into the
  password edit box, the OSK is popped up (unless an external keyboard is
  also attached). If no password or pincode has been set, then instead of
  the password entry field, you would instead have a "login" button that
  clears the greeter.
  
  On a tablet with mouse connected and no pincode set, the user could
  either swipe away the greeter or tap on the login button. If the user
  has a password/pincode set and attempts to swipe away the greeter, we
  should put up a hint message asking the user to enter their
  password/pincode to continue.
  
  This incremental enhancement to recognize the mouse is more consistent
  with convergence because tablets are mobile devices, and if no mouse is
  attached, we should follow a touch-centric approach. In a mouse-
  connected state, we can assume the user will be favoring that device.

+ Immediate problem: "phablet" name on the greeter login list. A bigger
+ refactoring of the greeter for bigger screens will follow.
