I suppose so, but won't that pretty much be limited to the internal id
of the card (cardid)? I think, though I'm not sure that most places
where I'd see this show the displayname. For the current cards that's
set to DVB 1, DVB 2, and DVB 3. I'll probably set the new ones to HDHR
1 and HDHR 2 or the like.

By the way, what's the significance of the inputname? Currently all
three of my existing cards have DVBInput for that.
