Player nickname in challenge

I would like to suggest adding some script method that allows you to change player nickname and also hide symbol of team in some challenge...
Also, i am not coder and i don't know how that works, so i'm trying to suggest it correctly.

WHY?
1.Sometimes when you make plot-based challenges, you need to distribute the characters by names; (IPlayer.ChallengeNickname by ID of chosen spawn)
2.If you already did, you need to hide symbol so that it does not interfere with you; (IPlayer.TeamSymbolHide by ID of chosen spawn)
3.This way you can make full-fledged stories with certain names, to fully penetrate your character if it is about him, and not about you.
4.Also it's not correct to see that someone is talking to you by using another nickname.

Example:

ATTENTION: This scripts may work only in challenges or campaigns!

I agree with that, I've always wanted to do that since Operation Sunrise was released. Even in that campaign, the first player is meant to be named "Gene" and it is also coded in the script, however, since it's Player One, you'll never be able to see its nametag display "Gene".

Also there's a lot of challenges in which your nametag changes, so I'm pretty sure it is posible.
