One server side control that can be very useful is the ability to search by
nick names.
That is, encapsulating the knowledge that:
"William" = "Will" = "Bill" = "Billy" = "Wilberto" = "Willem"
Than, applications looking for Billy will be able to leverage this centrally
stored functionality and find the person even if his name is actually
William.

Isn't that a matching rule ?
