I hope I'm not butting in, but I too would be leery of any default
behavior that's going to say thing1 and thing2 are the same thing
but ignoring (name part of thing here). If that's the comparison
I mean to make, and it's as easy as CANONICAL WITHOUT COMMENTS
to say that's what I mean, I'd be happy to write that. It also means
that the next person reading my code will know "oh, he means
'same' in *that* way", without having to think about it.
