I have some twenty different sending identities for different purposes
(mostly mailing lists). I use the same display name, but the e-mail
address is different.
In the identities, I use the Organization field as a comment as to what
the identity is for.
Because the display name is the same, it is hard to select the correct
identity in the RoundCube UI.
With the patch, the organization is shown in the list box.
Screenshot first:

See how in the From, (Roundcube Mailing List) is shown in parentheses?
Without that, I have no idea that 937-737-6257 is the correct identity.
In the past I worked around this by including some note in the display
name, but that then goes into the e-mail as part of the From header.
The patch could be better: if the organization is empty, it could avoid
affixing it. It's kind of a proof of concept.
