Maybe it's better to use auth-source-pick parameters, something like (account "my-account-1") coupled with "account my-account-1" in the netrc file. In Gnus we can do it since each server entry has its own name which can be separate from the actual server address. Will that work in VM, giving a logical name to each account? See auth-source-pick and auth-source-user-or-password for the details; the query data format is pretty simple thanks to Michael Albinus' help recently.
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.
