@nikic I don't think the name "canon" or "canonicalizer" will lead to any 
confusion here. This is in fact what the pass is doing and mimics the name of 
MIR canonicalizer with similar assumptions as @plotfi noted . Using the term 
"canonicalization" for the current/existing set of passes is not really common 
or well defined.

As for the RFC, there was a discussion thread in the LLVM Dev Mailing:
