Jeff Coatsworth? How hard is it to change a character's last name if a non-white or non-African-American gets the role?

How hard is it to accept a little race-blind casting in Hollywood?

You'd be happier if he had a more "Asian" name? What if his character's mother married a man named Coatsworthy and Jeff decided to keep his stepfather's name? What if his father was Asian, but changed his name to avoid being pigeon-holed by bigots?

Mostly, though, who cares?!?!?
