I agree with most of the arguments raised on behalf of this option:

* It doesn't make sense to have `-libre` suffix in package names if the
distro is completely free software.
* Name changes are unnecessarily complex and don't follow the KISS rule.

I'm also a bit annoyed by the fact I have to guess if the package was
renamed in Parabola whenever I install software through pacman.
