It's definitely possible, Jurgen, but if it did change the low-level ID, I'd consider it a bug in that app.

I definitely wouldn't want to locate the drive just by name. It could cause a lot of problems with multiple drives with the same one: the last thing I'd want to see is the wrong drive getting smart updated or erased due to a naming conflict. The whole point of using a GUID/UUID is that it's unique. A name just isn't safe to use.
