An instance with no `name=` took its template's name: `framexml::merge` laid the instance's attributes over the template's, so `name` and `id` carried through. Stock `UIOptionsFrame.xml`'s unnamed `<Button inherits="UIPanelCloseButton">` became the global `UIPanelCloseButton`, with `GetName()` answering it, and any unnamed addon frame did the same to its template's name.
In 1.12.1, `PreLoadXML` (`0x769770`) reads `name` and `id` from the instance node before `LoadXML` walks the templates (`0x76985c`). The texture and font string factories also read `name` once, outside that walk (`0x6f2751`, `0x6f27e1`). So neither is ever inherited.
The merge now drops the template's `name` and `id`. Tests cover an unnamed frame, a named frame (no template id), an unnamed texture and `CreateFrame` with a nil name. All four fail without the fix.
