I don't know what compact view you're looking at, but this is it:



Exactly the same as before!  Perhaps try the contact list layout options if yours doesn't look right?

And having to mouse-over won't be a problem once everyone is using it and has their real name rather than a long display name

Your name on it will be whatever your name is set to in your Windows Live Profile (it may take a moment or two to update).  If you want to change it, then change your name in there.
