Good to see another bad name merged in master ^_^
Yep, same feeling here....
At this point, I think that it's simply a question of which bad
name we go with. None of them are particularly good, and
there's a lot of disagreement about almost all of them - and if
there's a lot of agreement, it's about how bad the name is, not
how good it is.
I'd be very surprised to ever get real agreement on this. There
simply isn't a good name for it. And if Walter and Andrei like
AliasTuple, it's probably going to stick (and Andrei does seem
to like it; no idea about Walter).

Tuple is the only name where we have actual, factual feedback.
Hanging in the d irc chan for years, it is apparent that calling
this tuple confuse people. That is a fact.
