It would be nice to have the feature to recognize the world in some mods. #1358

I run two Paper servers and one Fabric server behind Velocity. And if using VoxelMap, Xaero's Minimap, JourneyMap, etc. on the client, it's hard to use them properly because they overwrite the map every time moving the server. But with the WorldNamePacket plugin installed in Velocity, VoxelMap or JourneyMap recognize the server. However, Xaero's Minimap does not recognize the packet properly, mods like Distant Horizons do not properly support proxy servers. It would be nice if Velocity standardized on this packet structure and made it easier for mod developers to follow.

The overworld on server A and server B will be the exact same dimension name, as there is no other form of UUID attached, I'm not sure what the expectation from us here would be

Send an identifier for the backend server. Even the server/group name set in the config would probably work. Anything that would allow clients to know what map to render would be useful.

if mod map makers had an agreed upon means of us sending this to them, we could adopt it; but, there exists 0 gain from us just sending random plugin messages to the client if there is no agreement on a channel name, format, etc
