Neither was I, except in the comment about "mnemonic".  I use "postfix
=" and "prefix =" because I don't know of better names that indicate
the semantics of the feature.

Semantically, "prefix =" is a reasonable solution to the problem --
assuming you consider it a problem.  But it's far from concise and
violates DRY -- it doesn't solve the problem of the first draft typo.
I don't see it as elegant the way "postfix =" is.
