There are things like imprudent naming choices that are mistakes waiting to happen. I called an early utility of mine "Preview-LaTeX" and realized with the first vanity searches that web search engines generally ignore case. And that I was not exactly entering an empty search space. Well, I've dropped the capitalization since then, and clearly by now that tool (that ended up quite elaborate partly due to a host of contributors) dominates the search space. But "is this a good idea?" is something people should really consider when coining terms that other people will have to use as a reference. -- David Kastrup
