This was just to highlight the need for different $runtime names to avoid
collisions on the command-line.

You make a good point about the language $dialect name - this may or may
not be the same as the $runtime name.

The proposal has been updated now:

I like your proposal.

But its details would need fleshing out more, particularly at the end, where it 
says this:


Perl $new_runtime_name_for_perl5_goes_here (tm)
Perl $new-runtime-name-for-perl6-goes-here (tm)

That implies that the only things being branded this way are runtimes, and not 
the languages themselves, which I thought was meant to be under that umbrella.


So for example:

Perl $new_language_name_for_perl5_goes_here (tm)
Perl $new-language-name-for-perl6-goes-here (tm)
