I don't follow everything you say.

We do have logical account names in VM.  Are you saying that we could use them 
in the netrc file as the "machine", instead of the actual host name?  We could. 
  But I suppose the users will wonder why these things are supposed to be 
called "machines".

But I am not sure how auth-source-pick can help with this problem.  It seems 
like a way to pick a source file.

Cheers,
Uday
