I also thought it was feasible initially. Two kinds of rough edges came up when
I tried the implementation. (added some comments to document them)
a) `getIRPGONameForGlobalObject` currently mangles names currently, by passing
global values to `getNameWithPrefix`.`getNameWithPrefix` with [GlobalValue
parameter](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/cf1a979ccfa722c3f9fce28c66c13a222990eac4/llvm/include/llvm/IR/Mangler.h#L33-L39)
makes use of other information (e.g.,
[linkage](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/cf1a979ccfa722c3f9fce28c66c13a222990eac4/llvm/lib/IR/Mangler.cpp#L123-L127),
[calling-conv](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/cf1a979ccfa722c3f9fce28c66c13a222990eac4/llvm/lib/IR/Mangler.cpp#L148-L166)
of functions, etc). `getNameWithPrefix` with stringified names as parameter
just [use
names](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/cf1a979ccfa722c3f9fce28c66c13a222990eac4/llvm/lib/IR/Mangler.cpp#L69-L79).
For parity we might need a `getGlobalIdentifier` that takes global values (not
just stringified names).
b) `getGlobalIdentifier` gets called in many places, and the `\1` handling
function in Mangler does [more than dropping
`\1`](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/cf1a979ccfa722c3f9fce28c66c13a222990eac4/llvm/lib/IR/Mangler.cpp#L33-L60),
so embedding Mangler's way of handling `\1` might affect all callers.
