IMO the mailbox names are more associated with the controller channels/
mailbox rather than the clients using it. Does it make sense to move
this under controller. It also avoid each client replicating the names.

I think it would be best to just make the mbox-names property optional,
like we have for other subsystems.

Doing it in the mbox-controller makes no sense at all, because the
mbox controller has (or should have) no idea what the attached devices are.
