    Seems like Andrei has nixed this idea:

    "Please no breakages and no clever schemes and no overengineering."

    Oh well. I'm kind of done with the whole naming thing, there are
    better things I could (and probably should) be doing. Plus arguing
    against Walter and/or Andrei is kind of an uphill battle, especially
    if they both agree on something.

    I'll leave the branch up for anyone who wants to continue to try
    things with it, it was a very cool idea.


And he's right. It is really annoying to update to a new version and
have perfectly valid and working code breaking because someone had a
nice idea. Ideally, we should only ever break code that has a bug in it.

Yeah, I agree for existing names, but these are unreleased new names.
