Shift dates by context (a person's name) in the text

Shift dates by context (a person's name) in the text. This is so each document about a specific person has its dates shifted consistently.

How to differentiate between a person (patient) and a physician that also appears in multiple documents?

Update: The physician name filter finds physicians based on usage. The subtraction of the set of physician names from the set of persons' names would give the set of just patient names.

This requires a session store to maintain a list of the patient names. Can the replacements store be used for this, too?

Update: Can there be a hash function that generates a shifted date based on the person’s name? That would not require the store of names, but random shifting may be preferable.

What about the context parameter in the API? Does it play a role here?
