My slowness is largely because I'm not sure how to land/approach this. I'm= 100% in favor of the renames, it's the timing and coordination I'm unsure of. In hindsight, it probably would have best to squeeze it into 6.18, so at le= ast the most recent LTS wouldn't generate conflicts all over the place. The ne= xt best option would probably be to spin a new version, bribe Paolo to apply i= t at the end of the next merge window, and tag the whole thing for stable@ (mayb= e limited to 6.18+?) to minimize downstream pain.
