Well, this must have been that way for all releases I've ever
created. :-)
If I had the choice I'd rather remove the manifest attribute completely
than filling it with noise (and yes, I do consider my apache ID noise in
this case). Why would anybody care? And do I want people sending me
mails asking about a release I cut years ago because my name is in their
MANIFEST?

Well, this was brought up during the vote for commons lang 3.2 RC1 [1].
To be honest, I did not question it back then... :-)

Now that's an idea. So I'll throw in a bit of desinformation with
future releases :-)
Seriously, I'll probably make sure to insert dev@commons.apache.org in
the future.

The issue here I think is that the system account name is pasted
automatically. If you build the release from your son's account (or if
you have exotic tastes) you may end up with a 'Build-By: spacepirate'
field in the manifest, which is a bit embarrassing. Thus the default
recommendation to use the apache ID. But 'stefan' is perfectly fine to me.
